Speech-language pathologists (SLPs), often informally known as speech therapists, are professionals educated in the study of human communication, its development, and its disorders. They hold at least a master's degree and state certification/licensure in the field, as well as a certificate of clinical competency from ASHA. All of our speech-language pathologists are certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA).

Kimberli Moore
Kimberli has served in schools, outpatient clinics, and nursing homes as an outstanding speech pathologist, and been the Executive Director of the West Tennessee Hearing and Speech Center since 2009. Her clinical focus is primarily adults with acquired neurological impairments, children and adults with severe / profound disabilities, and pediatric feeding disorders. Kimberli has earned the Award for Continuing Education (ACE) from the American Speech-Language Hearing Association (ASHA) twice. Kimberli’s drive comes from a desire to meet the communication and swallowing needs of those within her community, one person one treatment at a time. “If you could only sense how important you are to the lives of those you meet, how important you can be to the people you may never even dream of. There is something of yourself that you leave at every meeting with another person.” – Fred Rogers, The World According to Mister Rogers
