Miriam Glick, M.S., CCC
Speech  Language Pathologist

For over 30 years I have provided speech and language evaluations and therapy for children in New York City.  I began my career working at a school for children with language-based learning disabilities where I met with children individually, in small groups, and in the classroom in conjunction with special education teachers. Subsequently, I worked at a therapeutic nursery as a member of an interdisciplinary team comprised of parents, special education teachers, psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, occupational therapists, and music therapists. This experience instilled in me the importance of treating the ‘whole’ child.  Currently, I concentrate on my private practice, which I began over twenty years ago, and I consult at an independent preschool. As a consultant I make recommendations for further evaluation, and I work closely with teachers to help facilitate language development and social interactions in the classroom.

            From an undergraduate degree in music, I found my way to an interest in speech and language development in children and, specifically, to children for whom speech and language don’t develop smoothly.  Developing a therapeutic relationship, nurturing a child’s strengths while working on difficulties, and making the work engaging, are key components of my approach to therapy.
