Brooke Richardson, MS, CCC-SLP

Medical speech-language pathology expert

Hi there!

I'm Brooke, a Medical SLP practicing in acute care and outpatient since 2009.

Yes, I'm still actively practicing!

Working in healthcare throughout my entire career,
I experience the same challenges you do -- things like finding the right education and community to grow my clinical skills without giving up my precious non-SLP time.

My passion for bridging the gaps between research, education, and real-life clinical practice led me to create The Modern MedSLP... a specialized platform that offers specialized education, resources, and a supportive community to help you:

Connect with a practicing clinician whose expertise you trust… and who also understands the challenges of working in the ever-changing healthcare climate
Hone your clinical skills with digestible education that applies directly to the real world
Meaningfully connect with other Medical SLPs in a supportive community
Thrive personally and professionally by leaving behind groups that allow bullying or promote groupthink
Practice as the confident SLP you envision yourself being!

Inside The Modern MedSLP, you’ll learn not only from me– a practicing MedSLP, educator, and mentor with more than 16 years of experience– you'll also learn from other experts from fields like pulmonology and neurology.

Respiratory muscle training for SLPs

I'm also the founder of Breathehab, a specialized platform dedicated to inspiratory and expiratory muscle training (EMST). My expertise in RMT spans over a decade of clinical application and professional training.

When I'm not working, I'm spending as much time as I can with my husband (who's also a MedSLP) and our daughter. You can also find me drinking coffee, taking pictures around town, and dreaming of my next travel destination.
