Hannah Smith

CCC-SLP, MA
Speech Language-Pathologist

Hannah Smith is an ASHA-certified Speech-Language Pathologist with a Bachelor of Science in Communication Disorders from Middle Tennessee State University and a Master of Arts in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of Memphis. She proudly calls Memphis, TN her home.

Hannah brings a heart for education and a passion for helping children of all ages grow in their communication skills. She spent the first four years of her career serving preschool and school-aged children in Memphis public schools, supporting needs in receptive and expressive language, articulation, phonology, fluency, and social communication before transitioning to private practice.

She’s especially passionate about creating inclusive, individualized therapy that builds a child’s confidence and supports real-life connection—whether at home, school, on the playground, or even in a future job interview. Her sessions are child-led, play-based, and full of creativity, often incorporating spoken language, visuals, sign language, and gestures to help kids communicate in ways that work best for them.

Outside of work, Hannah enjoys making art, exploring the outdoors with her dog Clover, watching both new and nostalgic films, and traveling the world with her husband, Bailey.

“Being an SLP is one the great joys of my life, because at the heart of my career, I am in the big, beautiful business of connection. To be human is to be connected to those around us- in word and conversation, in play and teamwork, in shared meals and laughter. It is an honor to serve as a resource for families as we take their child by the hand and lead them, together, to connect with their world and the loved ones within.”
