Building Confident Communicators at Home,
at School, & with Friends

Helping children and teens thrive through compassionate speech, social, and emotional coaching

At Jeanne Paige Speech & Social, kids get personalized support to strengthen their communication, emotional awareness, and everyday social skills.

 

Sessions are playful, supportive, and tailored to your child’s needs—so they feel understood, capable, and ready to handle real-life moments with confidence.

Real Challenges, Real Support, a Plan That Finally Makes Sense

Maybe your child is melting down after school, having a hard time keeping friends, or getting frequent calls home about behavior.

 

Maybe their speech isn't quite clear, or they shut down when they're overwhelmed but they don't meet the criteria for school based services, or you simply want MORE. More professionalism, more proactivity, more understanding and communication. 

I support toddlers through teens who may experience:
  • Big feelings and emotional dysregulation

  • Neurodiverse related challenges (ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, etc.)

  • Speech/Articulation concerns

  • Difficulties with friendships, reading social cues and  body language 

  • Behavioral challenges at home or school

  • Trouble identifying or expressing needs, thoughts or feelings

If you’ve ever felt like “something’s going on, but I don’t know where to start,” you’re in the right place.

Playful, Purposeful, and Real-Life Focused

Every child, and every family, is different. That’s why each plan begins with a conversation about what’s really going on at home and at school.

In our work together, you can expect:

Individualized Goals

based on your child’s needs and strengths

Play-based and real-world practice

based on your child’s needs and strengths

Support around emotions and behavior

not just speech sounds

Parent collaboration

so you feel confident supporting your child between sessions

Sessions might include role-play, games, visuals, movement, and real-life scenarios—whatever helps your child feel safe, engaged, and empowered.

Consistency is key for lasting progress. Packages are ideal if you know your child will benefit from ongoing support and you’d like to save on each session while committing to a plan.

Here's a little about me

Jeanne Paige is a New York State certified speech-language pathologist with over 15 years of experience helping children find their voice—both in communication and confidence.

After years in school settings, Jeanne saw a gap: many children who didn’t “qualify” for school-based services were still struggling to express themselves, manage emotions, and connect socially. Her private practice was born out of that need—to provide personalized, practical, and compassionate support for children who benefit from a little extra help outside the classroom.

Jeanne understands how closely language, emotions, and behavior are connected, and her work supports both children and their families in building stronger communication and connection at home. Her sessions are playful, purposeful, and rooted in real-life experiences. Whether helping a child navigate friendships, express big feelings, or gain the confidence to order their own drink at Starbucks, Jeanne meets each child where they are—with empathy, creativity, and humor.

When she’s not working with families, Jeanne is a mother of four, movement enthusiast, and a big believer in progress over perfection.

If you’re ready for someone to listen, guide, and help your child grow with confidence, you’ve found the right place.
