As an educational advocate, I help parents navigate the special education system. This includes advising and helping parents obtain appropriate classroom and school placements and ancillary services such as speech, occupational and physical therapies and augmentative communication services. I also attend IEP meetings, mediation and hearing. I can interpret clinical evaluations for parents.I am trained as a parent consultant through the Federation for Children with Special Needs and as an educational advocate through Wright’s Law Boot Camp. As a speech-language pathology I evaluate and treat children, adolescents and adults within a highly supportive and attentive environment. I offer evaluations and treatment options to individuals with a wide range of communication disorders. my goal is to maximize the potential of each and every client with whom I work. In order to do this I believe in an integrative approach that involves collaboration with parents, caretakers, educational teams and medical providers. Therapy is tailored to the individual needs of each client. Specialty areas evaluated and treated include articulation/phonological disorders, language based learning disabilities, auditory processing disorders, oral motor/feeding disorders, craniofacial disorders, pediatric and adult language/cognitive disorders, phonological awareness development, reading and writing disorders, stuttering, myofunctional therapy (i.e., tongue thrust), voice disorders and autism spectrum disorders which includes autism, pervasive developmental disorder and Aspergers (both pediatric and adult).

My name is Kaitlin Mulcahey M.S., CCC-SLP and I am a pediatric speech and language pathologist and the owner of Competent Communicators LLC. I am certified by the American Speech and Hearing Association and licensed to provide speech and language therapy in both Rhode Island and Massachusetts. I graduated from Loyola University Maryland with my Masters degree in Speech and Language Pathology after graduating with my undergraduate degree from The University of South Florida. I strongly believe that each child is unique and has individual strengths and needs. I do not believe in one-size-fits-all recommendations regarding intervention and therapy for children. Though I work with children with a variety of speech and language disorders, I am particularly passionate about working with autistic children. I have completed a variety of continuing education in order to provide best-practice when working with neurodivergent children. My therapy approach is child-centered, play-based, neurodiveristy affirming therapy that focuses on the whole child. I am also passionate about incorporating families into therapy for best outcomes. I am trained in providing therapy using the NLA (Natural Language Acquisition) framework for gestalt language processors. I am also trained in ASD from the Inside Out which is a developmental approach for working with autistic children. Additionally, I have years of experience completing AAC (augmentative and alternative communication) evaluations for pediatric clients who would benefit from use of an AAC device. I look forward to meeting you and your child!
