Megan Dennae
M.S., CCC-SLP
Harrisburg, PA Speech Therapist
My passion for helping children and young adults improve their speech and language began at a young age, when I began to shadow experienced Speech and Language Pathologists in the field. I admired the dedication and passion those Speech and Language Pathologists demonstrated towards their clients and the instant gratification from children being able to produce new words each day. With my immense amount of compassion towards others, patience, persistence, resourcefulness and adaptability, I knew this would be the perfect career choice!
I am a Pennsylvania-licensed Speech and Language Pathologist with vast experience with the pediatric population. Along with my private practice, I also work for the Pennsylvania Early Intervention (EI) Birth-3 program, servicing children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), Down syndrome, several other syndromes and disorders, apraxia, dysarthria, feeding and swallowing disorders, expressive and receptive language delays, and augmentative and alternative communication needs. Prior to EI, I received experience with school-aged children, creating and implementing treatment plans for children with ASD and other syndromes/disorders, articulation, phonology, and motor speech disorders, language delays and disorders, fluency disorders, cognitive-communication disorders, and pre-literacy and literacy delays.
I was born and raised in Mechanicsburg, and am happy to continue to service this area that I have grown to love! I now live just outside of Mechanicsburg with my husband, our son, and our two wonderful dogs, Charlee (English Bulldog) and Wilson (Retriever/Shepherd). When I am not seeing patients, I love to spend time with my family, travel, watch sports, and further my education and skill-set at an SLP.

Nancy Doe
M.S., CCC-SLP
Harrisburg, Speech Therapist
I realized that I wanted to be a speech therapist when I was in elementary school and received speech services myself. I loved my speech therapist, Mrs. Murray,and how she helped me with my /r/ sound; and I said from that day forth that I
wanted to be “just like her”. I initially took a different path when I started college and majored in Elementary Education for a year, until I discovered there was a speech path program where I was, and changed my major, which changed my life into one of the best decisions I could have ever made! I have been working in this field for over twenty years with just about every population, from pediatric to geriatric. I have provided therapy in many different settings in Florida and Pennsylvania.
Born and raised in northwestern PA, I graduated with my undergrad and graduate degrees from Clarion University of PA.
I love working with kids and their families in order to help parents and caregivers help their children every day with their child’s speech and language needs. I have experience working with children with autism, social and emotional disorders, and other developmental disorders and delays. I believe in utilizing a whole, or total communication approach, and that each child has unique and individual needs. I have worked with various Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) systems, and I am experienced with feeding and swallowing disorders.
I am a Pennsylvania licensed speech-language pathologist and hold a Certificate of Clinical Competence from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. I live outside of Harrisburg and I love spending time with my two sons and my family, as well as being outside in the sunshine!
