Meet Allison Long
Welcome!
I am a licensed speech therapist in New York with certification from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA). My professional journey began at the University of Wyoming, where I graduated with a master’s degree in Speech Language Pathology and two bachelor degrees in Communication Disorders and Spanish. With a decade of experience, I have provided tailored speech therapy services to individuals aged 3-18, addressing a range of diagnoses including autism, childhood apraxia of speech, receptive and expressive language disorders, and genetic conditions across educational, clinical, and home settings.
My approach to speech therapy is characterized by a naturalistic and child-centered methodology, prioritizing genuine connection and authentic communication. I believe strongly in the value of teamwork and collaboration.
Specializing in Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC), I bring extensive proficiency with PRC, Assistiveware, and Tobii Dynavox products. I am also trained in several childhood apraxia of speech programs, including PROMPT (Prompts for Restructuring Oral Muscular Phonetic Targets) therapy and DTTC (Dynamic Temporal and Tactile Cueing).
