Where sunshine, speech, and smiles meet.
Hey there!
My name is Liz Riccio and I am the proud founder and speech language pathologist behind The Sunshine Speech Company. With over a decade of experience working with kids and 5 awesome years as a speech therapist with experience in private practice, hospital, and school settings I'm dedicated to empowering children and their families. I've got a Master's degree in Communication Disorders, am certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), licensed by South Carolina Board of Speech-Language Pathology, and am always learning new ways to help kids shine.
I noticed that sometimes families feel a little cloudy when it comes to therapy, so I decided to switch things up and create a super positive, sunshiny environment where everyone feels encouraged and supported. I believe that when caregivers learn about their child's strengths and needs in a cheerful atmosphere, that's when the real magic happens! As your speech therapist and biggest fan, I'm committed to creating a warm, welcoming space where children and their families can grow, learn, and smile together.
COME FOR THERAPY, STAY FOR SUNSHINE.
We’re ready to tackle all sorts of challenges your child may be experiencing by assessing and treating the following areas in a super fun, totally supportive environment:
Speech Sound Disorders:
difficulties producing specific sounds (articulation) or sound patterns (phonology), such as lisping or trouble with certain consonants as well as Apraxia, a motor planning speech sound disorder.
Language Disorders:
challenges with understanding language (receptive), using language appropriately (expressive), and/or difficulties with the social use of language (pragmatic).
Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC):
assistance in determining and implementing alternative methods of communication for individuals who are non-speaking or have limited verbal skills.
Pediatric Feeding Disorders:
difficulty eating or drinking that can affect growth, nutrition and overall well-being of your child which may present itself as “picky” eating, trouble chewing or swallowing, avoidance of textures or types of food, difficulty transitioning to solids, and more.
