Susan has over 25 years of experience with school-age and adult individuals in the areas of language/learning disability, autism spectrum disorder, verbal apraxia, closed head-injury, reading disabilities, phonological processing disorder and ADD/ADHD. She developed and taught the course "Traumatic Brain Injury" at the graduate school level and has conducted workshops to SLPs and educators on how to interface curriculum when designing treatment plans and educational plans in order to achieve optimal outcomes with those individuals diagnosed with ADD/ADHD, learning disabilities and dyslexia. She has conducted evaluations and provided cognitive/language therapy for the past 10 years as part of a team of neuropsychologists and clinical psychologists for soldiers returning from Iraq with blast head-injury, children and adults who have sustained head trauma, and those children diagnosed with learning disabilities and ADD/ADHD. Ms. Khan brings her excellent diagnostic skills to bear upon litigation of legal cases for circumstances surrounding traumatic brain injuries.

She has been in private practice for the past seven years where she has provided speech/language therapy to very young children through an early intervention program, and has developed social skills groups for children and adolescents. She has developed the programs, Test and Teach-Preschool, Student, College, for children and young adults between the ages of two and 21 years of age where the philosophy is on teaching the parent/tutor to teach his/her child targeting a specific areas or goals in a designated number of sessions determined at the time of evaluation. Ms. Khan has most recently returned from Honolulu, Hawaii where she supervised graduate students at the University of Hawaii, Communication Disorders Dept. and conducted workshops for the Dept. of Education in Hawaii. She considers herself to be a creative individual, not using prescribed programs, but rather devises programs for the individual child or adult based upon very specific considerations such as personality, the client’s stated goals, drawing upon strengths while working to improve weak areas.
