ABOUT JENAJena Castro-Casbon, MS CCC-SLP is a private practice consultant, mentor, author, speaker and founder of the Independent Clinician, an online education company that specializes in helping SLPs and OTs start, grow, and scale successful private practices. Team Independent Clinician is on a mission to help at least a thousand SLPs and OTs start private practices each year because more practices means more services for the children and adults who need them.
