MM, MS, CCC-SLP
Kim Neely, MM, MS, CCC-SLP, is a working speech-language pathologist (SLP) and is “pretty okay” at it. Prior to becoming an SLP, she was a (mildly successful) opera singer and voice teacher. She received her Master of Science from the University of Arizona in 2014 and was awarded the Jean R. Guloien Outstanding Graduate Student Award that year, which is pretty cool considering she didn’t even get into a graduate school the first year she applied. She also hung around for two years after that (i.e., attempted a PhD) and took a lot of doctorate-level neuroscience courses. So if you’re an SLP who feels like Kim learned more about the brain in her master's than she did, she didn’t. She just kept on going and going and going with her neuroscience learning. ''Cause…well…hyperfixations, mainly. Kim is neuroqueer and is really, really hyper-focused on trauma-informed care. To this end, she took a graduate course on the topic during the COVID-19 shutdown (so it was basically her sourdough starter) and then continued her training through Trauma Institute International, where she received her certification as a Trauma-Support Specialist (CTSS), which she maintains through ongoing training.
