Leigh Han, M.S., CCC-SLP

Leigh received her Bachelors of Science from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in Communication Sciences and Disorders, and her Masters of Science in Speech Language Pathology from Marquette University. She has a Certificate of Clinical Competence from the American Speech Language Hearing Association, and is licensed in the states of Texas and California.

For over 25 years Leigh has practiced in various settings, including public schools, early intervention, preschools, ABA centers, home health, hospital out-patient clinic, private clinical settings, high school and beyond. She has specialized training in various methodologies, including but not limited to PROMPT, PECS, SCERTS, Social Thinking, Zones of Regulation, Kaufman Speech interventions, and ABA techniques.

Leigh has always had an oral approach to her articulation and speech therapy. Because of this passion, she has pursued additional training to support her years of experience. Leigh has completed the Talk Tools Oral Placement Therapy, TOTS: Tethered Oral Tissues specialty training and completed the 28 hour Orofacial Myology: From Basics to Habituation training provided by NeoHealth (Sandra Holtzman). She has passed the exam and is currently completing the practicum as a Qualified Orofacial Myologist (QOM) Candidate.

In addition, Leigh has training in the evidenced based Hanen approach to language therapy for infants/toddlers in It Takes Two To Talk, the first words program Target Word, the early childhood teacher training Learning Language and Loving It, and the autism program More Than Words.

Leigh believes in empowering clients, parents and students to take an active role in their speech therapy. The partnership between therapist and client (and parents) ensures good progress and generalization of skills while receiving services. Leigh believes that we all learn best when we are engaged and having fun.
