Meet Your Speech Therapist

Welcome to Unicon Speech! My name is Emily Freilich, M.S., CCC-SLP, and I am a dedicated and compassionate speech language pathologist.

At Unicorn Speech, every child receives personalized speech therapy services tailored to their own unique needs.

I have 10 years of experience working with children in schools, clinics, and at home. Families work with me to assess and treat children dealing with needs in: articulation/phonological, expressive/receptive language, literacy, social aspects of communication, and stuttering.

I’d love to learn more about your child so we can develop a personalized plan together.

I’m currently a full-time speech therapist with Montgomery County Public Schools. I’ve also worked at a private clinic and charter schools in Washington, DC and Philadelphia.

Many families don’t realize how much a speech therapist can help their child.

I completed my undergraduate degree in Psychology at the University of Michigan in 2010. I graduated in 2015 with a Masters of Science in Speech Language Pathology from Boston University. I hold a Certificate of Clinical Competence issued by the American Speech-Language Hearing Association. I maintain licensure in Maryland and Washington, D.C.

I am trained in PROMPT (Prompts for Restructuring Oral Muscular Phonetic Targets) and Comprehensive Orton Gillingham.  I have completed additional continuing education and trainings in Dynamic Temporal & Tactile Cueing, speech sounds disorders, childhood apraxia of speech, and natural language acquisition.
 
I grew up in Chevy Chase and enjoy being back in the DC area. I love traveling, playing tennis, and reading. In my free time, you can find me experimenting with new recipes, on my Peloton, or hiking with my husband.
