Speech-Language Pathology Clinical Fellow

Launch Your Career with Confidence at Gifted Integrative Speech Therapy (GIST)

At Gifted Integrative Speech Therapy (GIST), we believe exceptional clinicians are developed through intentional mentorship, collaboration, and meaningful clinical experiences—not by being left to figure things out alone.

This full-time, paid Clinical Fellowship is designed to provide comprehensive mentorship while allowing you to build confidence as an independent clinician serving children and their families.

What You'll Do

As a Clinical Fellow at GIST, you will:

• Conduct speech, language, feeding, and communication evaluations under the supervision of your Clinical Fellowship mentor.
• Develop and implement individualized, evidence-based treatment plans.
• Provide engaging, play-based, and family-centered therapy to pediatric clients.
• Collaborate with occupational therapists, physicians, educators, caregivers, and other professionals to support each child's success.
• Educate families through coaching strategies that promote carryover outside of therapy.
• Complete timely and accurate documentation using our electronic medical record system.
• Participate in clinical case discussions, mentorship meetings, and professional development activities.
• Build confidence in clinical reasoning, treatment planning, and ethical decision-making throughout your Clinical Fellowship.
