My name is Jeff Stepen, and I’m a speech therapist from the Chicago area with 25 years of experience as a speech-language pathologist. Welcome to my site!

My goal is to provide exceptional, individualized speech therapy to a range of clients wishing to improve their communication skills. I specialize in speech sound disorders (especially later developing sounds like "L" and "R") and working with minimally and nonspeaking individuals on the autism spectrum.

Basic Info & Updates (December 2021):

• My flexibility for after-school teletherapy is enhanced for those clients residing in California due to the time difference. For many clients, teletherapy is as effective as in-person services. I am looking to expand my practice in this area- particularly for those looking to work on developmental articulation delays.
• December 2021: For now, I will continue to see both local and not-so-local clients through teletherapy.
• I also host a podcast called Conversations in Speech Pathology. Check it out!
