I worked as a Speech-Language Pathology Assistant in the Colorado Public School System before moving to Seattle to complete my M.S. in Speech-Language Pathology at the University of Washington. Following graduation I worked in a private practice on the Eastside, where I developed a keen appreciation for the involvement of a child\u2019s family in the therapy process, as well as a strong belief in the power of collaboration among and within professions. I worked with clients who had a wide range of speech and language needs, including articulation, phonology, receptive and expressive language, stuttering, literacy, and voice, as well as disorders including childhood apraxia of speech, autism spectrum disorders, and language learning disabilities. In 2010, I transitioned into the Snohomish School District, where I was afforded a new perspective in utilizing multi-disciplinary teams and expanded my ability to directly target academic development through speech-language therapy. I presently work in my private practice full-time.<\/p>\n<h3>Education, Certifications, and Licensures:<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"aboutresume\">\n<li>Master\u2019s Degree in Speech-Language Pathology<br \/>\n<em>University of Washington<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Certificate of Clinical Competence<br \/>\n<em>American Speech-Language-Hearing Association<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Licensed Speech-Language Pathologist<br \/>\n<em>Washington Department of Health<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Academic and Continuing Education:<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"aboutresume\">\n<li>2013, 2015, 2017 &amp; 2019 Award for Continuing Education<br \/>\n<em>ASHA recognition for achieving 70 hours of continuing education<\/em><\/li>\n<li>PROMPT Level I &amp; II Training<\/li>\n<li>Functional Behavior Assessment &amp; Applied Behavior Analysis Coursework<\/li>\n<li>Hanen&#8217;s &#8220;It Takes Two to Talk&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Floortime &#8211; Basic Mastery Course<\/li>\n<li>Summer Literacy Institute &#8211; Gallaudet University<\/li>\n<li>Autism Spectrum Disorders, Childhood Apraxia of<br \/>\nSpeech, Literacy &amp; Stuttering seminars<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Professional Memberships and Participation<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"aboutresume\">\n<li>National Stuttering Association<br \/>\n<em>Facilitator of the Kent Teen (TWST) Stuttering Support Group 2011-2014<\/em><\/li>\n<li>American Speech-Language-Hearing Association <em>(ASHA)<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"left-column\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-472\" title=\"WEDD\" src=\"http:\/\/www.aspeechpathseattle.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/DSC_5802_2-490x648.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"490\" height=\"648\" srcset=\"http:\/\/aspeechpathseattle.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/DSC_5802_2-490x648.jpg 490w, http:\/\/aspeechpathseattle.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/DSC_5802_2-226x300.jpg 226w, http:\/\/aspeechpathseattle.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/DSC_5802_2.jpg 1585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 490px) 100vw, 490px\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>By learning you will teach; by teaching you will learn.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong>Latin Proverb<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About Kate Pilant I received my B.A. in Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences, with a minor in Linguistics, from the University of Colorado at Boulder.
