Hi!  I am Kristy Silva, a Speech Language Pathologist and the owner of Speech Strong. I am competent in treating children birth through 21 years with a wide variety of disorders including, dysphagia, expressive and receptive language, articulation and phonological disorders.  I love the smiling faces and hugs I receive upon arrival at Speech Strong.  I enjoy getting to know all the families I work with and seeing them thrive in our community. I am proud to say that Speech Strong started in April of 2014 and has helped many children grow and flourish.  Being able to provide any form of communication, from sign language, verbalizations, pictures, and speech generated devices, allows for effective communication. It is such a rewarding career that I am blessed to provide.

I studied Communication Sciences and Disorders and Audiology at the University of Texas at Austin where I received my Bachelor’s Degree. I received my Master’s Degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders in May 2011 from Our Lady of the Lake University.  Prior to my career, I was a Teacher’s Assistant for children with special needs and a Speech Language Pathology Assistant.  I have provided supervision and guidance to many Speech Language Pathology Assistants and Interns. I have worked in different settings but my passion is working at Speech Strong because the environment is controlled with limited distractions that reveal results. I am bilingual (Spanish/English), VitalStim Certified, and have had numerous continuous education courses in areas of Autism, Sensory Integration, and Oral Motor. I continuously strive to provide the best speech therapy and keep up with the newest trends in intervention.

I was born and raised in Floresville, TX and I am pleased to raise two young boys in my home town.  I am also an active member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church.  I enjoy watching suspenseful movies with my husband, taking my kids to the park, and crafting with my cricut.
