Mariah Lopez, M.S., CF-SLP, is a Speech-Language Pathologist who earned her master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Rutgers University. She is passionate about helping children find their voice and gain confidence in how they express themselves.Mariah’s interest in speech-language pathology grew from her fascination with how communication connects people and how a single word, gesture, or shared moment can build understanding and belonging. That passion now guides her work with students, where she focuses on creating a safe, playful, and supportive environment that celebrates progress in all its forms.She completed her Clinical Fellowship in the Roselle and Dunellen Public School Districts, working with preschool through eighth-grade students. There, she provided therapy targeting articulation, language development, and early literacy while collaborating closely with teachers and families to make learning feel natural and fun.Mariah is especially interested in early childhood language development, social communication, and creating culturally responsive therapy materials that reflect her students’ experiences. She enjoys finding creative ways to connect therapy with real-life moments—turning stories, play, and conversation into meaningful opportunities for growth.In her free time, Mariah enjoys reading, exploring new creative projects, and spending time in nature.
