ABOUT
Amanda McGuckin, MA, CCC-SLP
I have a passion for helping others to successfully communicate and it has led me to dedicate my career to speech language pathology. Throughout these last 19 years of providing services, I have focused on working with children of all ages birth to 18 years with a variety of speech and language disorders.
My goal with every client is to begin therapy as early as possible, and engage families in a collaborative process, which helps lead to greater success for clients.
When I am not helping little ones communicate, I am a wife to my wonderful hubby and mother of two children Vivian and Wyatt.
You can find me on the sidelines or in the stands cheering my children on at sporting events, volunteering with our local charities, Jazzercising or walking my two King Charles Cavalier Spaniels.
I was born and raised in Southern California (Yes! I miss the beach) until a job opportunity for my husband landed us in Southlake, Texas 10 years ago. We love TEXAS! I am blessed and honored to serve my community and work with your little one!
