Meet the Speech Language Pathologist

Maria Romero M.S. CCC-SLP

Hello! ¡Hola! One of my passions is empowering children to find their voices by overcoming their communication barriers. I do this by collaborating with parents to provide speech-language therapy that is individualized to your child’s needs. I enjoy working with families to provide language-rich environments and supporting the use of every language to communicate.

I am an ASHA-certified bilingual speech-language pathologist (CCC-SLP) and licensed by ABESPA in the state of Arkansas to practice Speech language Pathology. I received my bachelor’s degree in Communication Disorders from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. Go hogs! Soon after graduating in 2006, I moved to Little Rock to continue with my education and received a Master’s degree in Speech Language Pathology from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in 2008. I also hold a master’s in education, an ESL endorsement, and a certification in Autism Spectrum Disorders.

I have 13 years of experience working with the pediatric population through a variety of settings to include: public schools, homes, hospital, and private clinics.

Lastly, I am married and have fraternal, boy and girl, twins. I enjoy the outdoors and spending time with my family in all that the NWA has to offer.
