Is there a difference between a Speech-Language Pathologist and a Speech Therapist? What does CCC mean?
Dear Dr Bowen: My daughter who is aged 5;5, and who has severe developmental apraxia of speech, goes to speech once a week at school and sees a speech teacher (the school district’s official title for her). The speech teacher assures me she is a speech therapist. In addition, twice a week my daughter sees a speech-language pathologist (MA SLP /CCC) privately. The private speech-language pathologist says she has her C’s and is therefore not a speech therapist but an SLP! What is the distinction?
