About AccessAbility Kids
Meet Ms. Kerry
Welcome to AccessAbility Kids! I'm Ms. Kerry, a licensed speech-language pathologist and Orton-Gillingham reading tutor in Charleston, SC. I grew up in Syracuse, NY and received my undergraduate degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders at The College of Wooster in Wooster, Ohio. I then moved to Washington, D.C., where I completed my master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology at The George Washington University. In 2019, I moved to Charleston, SC to start my career and have been loving it ever since!
Over the past five years, I have worked with pediatrics in their natural environment and in a clinical setting. For the last two years, I have also worked with adults in a hospital setting. I received my training in Orton-Gillingham in February of 2023 through the IMSE program. If I'm not doing speech or reading therapy, you will probably find me training for a marathon or playing pickleball!
Our Mission
At AccessAbility Kids our mission is to provide holistic pediatric speech and reading therapy that fosters communication and reading development through the power of movement, nature-based experiences, and small group sessions.
As a speech therapist in a multi-disciplinary setting, I saw first hand the impact movement and sensory regulation had on my client's speech and language development. I also found my students were more engaged during small group sessions. When opening my practice, my mission was to build on these strengths by creating a space outside of a small office for children to embrace movement and share experiences with peers. Through individualized, movement and nature-based therapy, we aim to create a positive, supportive community where every child can grow, learn, and thrive.
