Speech Solutions; Dedicated to the Community Since 2003

What began with six loyal, supportive, patient employees operating out of Allison’s home in Rowland, NC, grew into multiple facilities serving clients from Sandhills to Coastal NC. For nearly two decades, Speech Solutions, Inc., has been meeting the speech and language needs and now occupational needs of the communities where we work.

Being involved in the community is very important to us. Staff, therapists and assistants at SSI, are invested in the community in which they work; it’s where they live. Our therapists are familiar with cultural and community needs. We are family oriented and understand the importance of considering each family’s unique dynamics.

Not only do we work as a team to serve patients of all ages, but we have fun in the community as a team. Employees can be spotted picking trash, leading a local Jr. League Meeting, sitting on a local board, supporting nearby schools and churches, and volunteering when and where needed. Teamwork makes the dream work! In January 2015, Speech Solutions, Inc. was awarded the 2015 Small Business Award by the Lumberton Area Chamber of Commerce.

She always encourages family participation and provides suggestions for carry-over. I thoroughly enjoy working with Joan in a collaborative effort of meeting the needs of children and families.”

- Shelly Baker

“What can I say besides ya’ll are awesome! Allison was a wonderful speech therapist to my grandson, Christopher. With Christopher’s previous therapist, there was not any progress, so the therapist began teaching him sign language. Things changed and Allison came into the picture. The first day of therapy, Christopher said a word for her. I love the way Allison interacted with Christopher in his home environment. She got down on his level and played with him and his toys for the therapy session instead of making him sit still and listen. I knew from the beginning that Allison was the perfect fit for Christopher.”

– Grandparent of Wilmington CDSA patient

- Lauren Hardin

“Dalton has been receiving speech therapy from Speech Solutions for a little over a year. Since he began he has made significant improvements. His speech is more intelligible and people find him easier to understand. Dalton looks forward to therapy with his “talking teacher.” His therapist picked up on his interests and conducts therapy in a fun and informal manner with the aid of toys and games that are appealing to him. She also listens to our concerns and gives us practical answers and suggestions. We couldn’t be more pleased with Dalton’s progress!”

“As a former employee, I would like to share just how wonderful Allison Harrington and the staff are to work with at Speech Solutions in Lumberton. I worked with Speech Solutions as a Speech Pathologist for six years, and had it not been for an out-of-state relocation, I would still be there. Allison is a top-notch employer, who cares for her employees and the community, as well as the clients that are served through her agency. I appreciated the fact that she does not micro-manage, allowing the therapists to be truly responsible for their caseloads and outcomes, i.e. development of and number on caseload, as well as setting their own schedules. She trusts her therapists to provide excellent client services and gives them the tools to make it happen. The support staff is excellent as well, always willing to help in any way possible. In conclusion, Allison Harrington and the staff at Speech Solutions are second to none. If you are considering employment at Speech Solutions, rest assured that it is a great company to work for and Allison and her staff will be there to support you as you make the difference in a client’s life.“

- Kristin Brady

“Speech Solutions, Inc. afforded me with the opportunity to see the multiple sides of this field. I not only saw the administrative side of speech pathology, but also was able to assist with therapies and speech screenings. The staff was friendly and went out of their way to make my internship memorable and a valuable learning experience. My internship through Speech Solutions, Inc. helped me to reaffirm that I wanted to be a speech pathologist and gave me a first hand look at what this career will entail. The staff went out of their way to make my internship a valuable learning experience. I feel strongly that this experience and what it taught me aided my graduate school admission.”
