About Kaitlyn Opar
Hi! I'm Kaitlyn. I became a licensed speech-language pathologist in 2017. Since high school, I knew I wanted to work in a field where I could truly help others. I explored many areas of healthcare, but when I shadowed SLPs in hospitals, clinics, and schools, I saw something that inspired me—they were helping people connect, express themselves, and find their voices. That’s when I knew this was the career for me. Now, as an SLP specializing in early childhood development, I focus on the earliest ways children communicate—through body movements, eye contact, gestures, and sounds. By noticing and responding to even the smallest attempts to share a want, need, or feeling, we build trust and connection. Those moments not only support language growth, but also nurture a child’s social, emotional, and cognitive development. I earned my Graduate Certificate in Assistive Technology from Northern Arizona University in 2020. Along with diverse AAC experience, I am well-versed in supporting children with autism, sensory processing challenges, and sensory-emotional regulation needs. To deepen my skills, I completed DIR-Floortime training and received my DIR Basic Certificate from the International Council on Development and Learning in 2021. I also hold a Master’s in Infant and Early Childhood Development with an emphasis in Mental Health and Developmental Disorders from Fielding Graduate University, where I will also graduate with my PhD in November 2025. I have presented “Foundational Skills for Emerging Language Communicators” to professionals across speech-language pathology, behavior analysis, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and education. I worked in settings such as public school, private school, and private practice. I would describe my clinical style as holistic, client-centered, functional, individualized/personalized, family-centric, routines-based, strengths-based, sensory integrated, and rooted in client empowerment to create self-advocates.
