Hi, I’m Karen Krogg, M.S., CCC-SLP, a pediatric speech-language pathologist and the creator of The Pedi Speechie. 

I’m a pediatric speech-language pathologist with 15 years of experience in preschool, elementary, and middle school settings, as well as outpatient settings. 

Most of my clinical experience has been in the schools, which is why I focus so heavily on practical resources for real caseloads, mixed groups, and busy therapy schedules.

Over the years, I’ve taken extensive coursework in treating speech sound disorders, orofacial myology, lisps, vocalic r, and AAC. I’ve completed LAMP training, which has shaped the way I think about supporting functional communication for students with complex communication needs.

I created The Pedi Speechie in 2012 because I had a strong desire to create meaningful activities and materials to use with my students. 

I’m grateful that so many SLPs have used these materials with their own students.

I specialize in creating practical, clinically informed speech therapy resources and comprehensive programs.

I value hands-on learning with interactive components. 

But what I’m most known for is taking complex topics or treatment areas and breaking them down into manageable components. 

Many of my best-selling resources are low-prep or no-prep.

Before creating larger programs, I often spend months reviewing research, completing relevant continuing education, organizing treatment steps, and testing activities with my own caseload when possible. 

My resources are carefully designed based on my clinical experience. 

When possible, I test activities with students on my own caseload and update resources over time based on clinical use.

Some of my most-trusted resources include my Vocalic R and Lisp Program, my Entire Year of Grammar and Sentence Structure Program, my Semantic Relationships Worksheets, and my Minimal Pairs Bundle.

On The Pedi Speechie TpT store, you’ll find resources for speech sound disorders, lisps, vocalic R, phonology, vocabulary, grammar, semantic relationships, and mixed-group therapy.

But that’s not all that The Pedi Speechie offers.

I also write clinical blog posts and create free tools to help SLPs make faster, more confident therapy-planning decisions.

In fact, one of my most-visited blog posts is my Phonological Processes article– it’s not just a list of processes, it’s a complete guide for school SLPs.

My Free Speech Therapy Tools page includes practical tools you could use during a busy therapy day, including a chronological age calculator, a visual schedule maker, digital articulation dice, a language prompt generator, and a group data collection tracker. 

“I have a lot of strengths as a speech therapist–but I know that one of my weaknesses is teaching something to my students in a structured way to help them improve. This has been helpful for a lot of my students and ME as the therapist trying to make activities that are going to really support some of the grammar and/or syntax needs my students have.” -Suzanne R.

“This resource tackles too hard skills to teach and makes it easier for us. I use these all the time.”- Lisa W.

“This Minimal Pairs Bundle for Speech Therapy has been such a valuable resource for targeting phonological processes in therapy sessions! The materials are thoughtfully organized, easy to use, and incredibly effective for helping students hear and understand sound contrasts.” -Mariah B.
