Meet Maureen K. Delaney, M.S. CCC-SLP

“The day I witnessed the transformative power of one Speech & Language Pathology session, I knew I wanted to dedicate my life’s work to the field of Communication Disorders.”

— Maureen K. Delaney, M.S. CCC-SLP

CVSLP offers outpatient personalized assessment, therapy and consultation services for both medical and school-aged populations.

Welcome! I'm Maureen K. Delaney, owner and founder of Champlain Valley Speech & Language Practice, LLC (CVSLP, LLC).

As an American Speech, Language & Hearing Association (ASHA) certified Speech & Language Pathologist, with a Master of Science degree & Certificate of Clinical Competence (M.S., CCC-SLP), I am licensed in Vermont & New York state in the USA. Additionally, I am registered to practice in Ireland as a Speech & Language Therapist (SLT) through CORU Health & Social Care Professionals, Ireland’s regulating body.

As a lifelong advocate for communication and connection with over three decades of clinical experience, I provide thoughtful, straightforward & engaging services to support individuals with communication challenges.

I specialize in working with Articulation, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) & Social Thinking®, & Voice and Resonance challenges.

Articulation Therapy

For students working on speech sound development & correction, I provide assessments and fun, evidence-based therapy tailored to improve their ability to be understood by others.

Voice & Resonance

Evaluation, consultation, and therapy for disordered voice use, for example, diagnosed Vocal Cord Dysfunction (VCD), vocal nodules, spastic dysphonia, laryngectomy communication rehabilitation, as well as more in-depth medical referrals.

ASD & Social Thinking

I support learners on the autism spectrum or those who can benefit from perspective-taking and social language instruction. My approach is unique and fun, blending Social Thinking® principles with neurodiversity-affirming, real-world practice. This intervention improves an individual’s ability to better understand themselves, their environment & others, leading to increased social and life skills success.

Maureen consults with team members to develop inclusive intervention plans for individuals when needed.
