About

Empowering children to communicate with confidence by providing expert, compassionate & individualized services. Serving ages 0 to 21 both virtually or in-person from the convenience of your home.

My name is Shelby Bender, and I am passionately dedicated to helping children find their voices and communicate effectively. As a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist with a heart full of compassion, I have made it my life’s mission to support young individuals in overcoming communication challenges and unlocking their full potential.

Nationally certified through the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) and licensed through the Florida Department of Health, my experience spans various settings, including schools (pre-K through high school), private practice, and home health, allowing me to work with a diverse pediatric caseload. My commitment to professional growth is demonstrated by my dedication to staying updated on the latest advances in the field of Speech-Language Pathology.

  • Does hearing affect your speech?

    Hearing can impact speech sound production as well as language acquisition. See https://www.asha.org/public/developmental-milestones/communication-milestones/ for typical milestones. If you have concerns, see a speech-language pathologist for an evaluation. https://shelsspeechbythebeach.com/ READ MORE

  • Is speech therapy effective for late talkers?

    Speech therapy can definitely help and early intervention is so important! Close the gap before it widens. I recommend having your child assessed. According to ASHA, at 19-24 months your child should use and understand at least 50 different words for food, toys, animals, and body parts. Your child should put two or more words together—like more water or go outside. https://shelsspeechbythebeach.com/ READ MORE
