Meet Liat!

Liat Rosen, , Collab Speech Therapy, Speech-Language Pathologist

Liat Rosen, M.S., CCC-SLP

Owner, Speech-Language Pathologist

Hi! My name is Liat, and I started Collab Speech Therapy because I have always been passionate about speech and language development during the early childhood years AND working as a team to help little ones develop! As a speech therapist with over 15 years of experience, I have been fortunate to work in 4 states in a variety of settings (Early Intervention, Integrated Preschool Programs, Elementary Schools, and private clinics). I believe the sooner we can provide intervention to a child…the better!

Testimonials

“Liat quickly developed a strong relationship with my son. She worked collaboratively with me to help my son further develop his speech. He loved his sessions with her and I highly recommend her!”

- Parent of a 4-year-old

“Since her evaluation my three year old has adored her time with Liat! Her whole face lights up when she realizes it's one of her speech therapy days. As a parent, I'm thrilled with Liat's patience, sense of humor, and focus in the evaluation and sessions. I've observed lasting improvements in my daughter's speech in every session.”

- Parent of a 3-year-old

“My 4-year-old daughter has been working with Liat for over a year now and it’s been such a positive experience for both my daughter and for me. I can tell she truly cares about my child’s needs and wants her to be as successful as possible. And best of all, my daughter loves the time that she spends with Liat!!”

-Parent of a 4-year-old
