A TRUSTED NAME IN SCHOOL-BASED SPEECH & LANGUAGE THERAPY
Welcome to askew speech & language therapy
Askew Speech & Language Therapy is a therapist-led, contract-based staffing company dedicated exclusively to placing highly qualified speech-language pathologists (SLPs) in school districts across the the state of Florida. Founded by Stefanie Askew, M.S., CCC-SLP in 2015, we serve districts of all sizes with professionalism, consistency, and unmatched clinical standards.​ Our model is built for long-term impact. We recruit, retain, and support top-tier SLPs who are passionate about student success and thrive in educational settings. Every therapist we place is selected with care, matched strategically, and backed by responsive, experienced leadership that understands the realities of school systems.
​
Askew Speech is not a general staffing agency or therapy clinic. We are a trusted resource for school districts throughout Florida and a preferred career destination for SLPs seeking competitive pay, professional respect, and meaningful work in the field they love.
Why Choose Askew speech
SLPs who join Askew Speech & Language Therapy are not looking for a temporary gig. They are highly trained professionals who want their work to matter, their time to be respected, and their compensation to reflect their contributions. That’s why we’ve created a company culture centered on career longevity, clinical excellence, and fair treatment.
​
Unlike many national firms, we don’t treat SLPs as interchangeable parts. We invest time in learning about your professional goals, experience level, and clinical strengths before offering any placement. Whether you’re looking for a long-term district match or short-term flexibility, we work with you to find the right fit—not just the first opening.
​
Our therapists consistently report higher satisfaction, better communication, and stronger support with Askew Speech than with previous employers. We offer highly competitive pay, honest and transparent contracts, and the kind of behind-the-scenes support that makes your job easier, not harder. When you succeed, we all succeed—and we never forget that.
About askew speech & lAnguage therapy
A Company Built on Purpose-Driven Values
At Askew Speech & Language Therapy, our work is guided by a clear set of values rooted in service, professionalism, and educational impact. We exist to connect highly qualified speech-language pathologists with schools that need consistent, capable, and committed support—because when the match is right, students thrive.
​
We are driven by a simple but powerful mission: to raise the standard of contracted speech services in public education. That means advocating for therapists, supporting districts, and holding ourselves to the highest levels of integrity in everything we do.
​
We believe:
​
-
Every student deserves access to exceptional speech and language services delivered by qualified, supported professionals.
-
Every therapist deserves to be paid fairly, treated with respect, and empowered to do their best work.
-
That matching the right therapist to the right school setting is not only possible, it’s essential.
​
These principles shape every decision we make from hiring to placement, from how we communicate to how we show up for the people we serve. We don’t aim to be the biggest, we aim to be the most trusted. That trust is earned every day through transparency, professionalism, and real results.
