Where Sound Becomes Speech

Courtney McGovern | Little Roars Speech and Hearing | New Jersey Speech and Language Pathologist

and connections grow.

As a certified Speech-Language Pathologist with advanced, specialized training in Auditory-Verbal Therapy and Tethered Oral Tissues (TOTs), I support deaf and hard-of-hearing children who use hearing technology, as well as children who may experience feeding, oral-motor, or speech challenges related to tethered oral tissues, such as tongue ties or lip ties. My approach is collaborative, functional, and focused on helping children function and communicate confidently through coordinated, effective care.

My Approach

Individualized therapy sessions

Each session is designed specifically for your child, targeting their individual goals. I use a variety of engaging activities and techniques to keep them motivated and learning, such as games, songs, and interactive play.

Parent coaching and involvement

You're an essential part of the journey! I'll provide you with the knowledge and tools to support your child's communication development at home. We'll work together to create a consistent and supportive learning environment.

A focus on real-world communication

We'll work on skills that translate directly to everyday life, such as understanding conversations, following directions, and expressing themselves clearly in different social situations.
