👋Hi! I'm Jillian Lenhard, M.S.Ed., CCC-SLP/L, TSSLD.
I’m the owner and founder of The Speech Path SLP, PLLC, a pediatric private practice built on connection, compassion, evidence-based care, and a whole lot of play.
After more than 13 years in the field, my passion remains the same: helping little learners and their families feel supported, empowered, and understood.
My clinical work spans birth through school age, but I especially love supporting early language development, late talkers, speech sound disorders, and neurodiverse learners.
My therapy style blends structure with silliness, grounded in research, but always individualized to what keeps a child regulated, engaged, and growing.
I built The Speech Path to be a warm, supportive space for families and a joyful one for therapists. Celebrating first words, growing confidence, and empowering parents are the moments that fuel me.
Outside the therapy room, you’ll usually find me with my husband and two boys, reading, cheering on sideline sports, or creating new resources for families and SLPs.
Fun fact: I’m the kind of person who starts “one quick idea” and suddenly it’s a full-blown project.
A phrase I come back to often is: “Connection first, communication second.” Because when a child feels safe and supported, everything else follows.
I’m endlessly grateful for every family that trusts us and for the incredible clinicians who bring The Speech Path to life each day.
