Alina Goldstein M.S., CCC-SLP/TSSLD, QOM®️
I am a licensed and certified Speech and Language Pathologist in New York State. With over 13 years of experience, I have worked in schools with children ages 3-18, and private practice clinical settings with both pediatric and adult populations. I specialize in helping both children and adults overcome speech and myofunctional challenges.
As an SLP who focuses on myofunctional therapy, I work as part of a multi disciplinary team that includes dentists, orthodontists, ENT’s, IBCLC Lactation Consultants, Occupational Therapists and Physical Therapists, among other healthcare professionals. By working together, the goal is always to achieve the most optimal outcome for you or your child.
I believe in whole-body wellness through collaborative care and personalized therapy plans.
My goal is to empower families by addressing the root causes of dysfunction in feeding, sleep, speech and breathing challenges through expert and personalized care.
