Mindy Scales, M.S., CCC-SLP
Originally from New York, Mindy is a seasoned Speech-Language Pathologist with over 25 years of experience supporting individuals across a wide range of ages, backgrounds, and settings in both education and healthcare. Her true passion has always been in working with children—helping them connect, communicate, and succeed in the world around them. Mindy specializes in areas including delayed expressive and receptive language, articulation and phonological disorders, childhood apraxia of speech, and autism spectrum disorder. She is especially committed to empowering parents, caregivers, and educators with the tools they need to support each child’s communication journey. Her therapeutic approach blends evidence-based practice with play-based strategies that make learning both meaningful and fun. She believes strongly in focusing on functional communication—meeting kids where they are and helping them make real-world gains. Outside of work, Mindy loves spending time with her husband and three young adult children, running outdoors, and soaking up the Carolina sunshine.
