About Veritas Voice and Speech LLC

Established in 2019, Veritas Voice and Speech LLC is a specialized private practice focused on voice, upper-airway, swallowing, and gender-affirming communication services. We are deeply committed to evidence-based, trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming, and LGBTQIA+ affirming care.

A major pillar of our practice is gender-affirming voice and communication training for transgender, nonbinary, and gender-diverse clients across the lifespan. We value clinicians who are thoughtful, collaborative, creative, self-directed, and excited to help shape the future of affirming voice care and specialty SLP services within Vermont.

This position is initially intended to provide clinical coverage during maternity leave, with transition into an ongoing long-term W2 role following the probationary period.

We are seeking an independent, forward-thinking clinician interested in helping expand the mission and reach of Veritas Voice and Speech LLC.

Position Overview

We are seeking a Speech-Language Pathologist with strong interest and/or established specialization in gender-affirming voice and communication services.

Additional specialty interests or experience in the following areas are highly valued and may support future clinical expansion within the practice:

• Voice disorders

• Upper airway disorders

• Swallowing assessment and dysphagia therapy

• Instrumental swallowing and laryngeal evaluation

This is a full-time, hourly W2 position with scheduling flexibility and opportunity for long-term growth within the practice.

Typical caseload expectations include approximately:

• 25 client sessions per week (maximum 30 clients)

• Roughly 5-6 clients per day

• Flexible scheduling structure depending on clinician preference and client needs

Examples may include:

• Monday–Thursday clinical schedule

• Tuesday–Friday clinical schedule

• Monday–Friday shorter clinical days with flexible hours

• Hybrid telehealth/in-person scheduling

The ideal candidate is highly organized, compassionate, adaptable, technologically comfortable, and motivated to contribute to program development and specialized clinical services.

Primary Responsibilities

• Provide gender-affirming voice and communication therapy to transgender, nonbinary, and gender-diverse adolescent and adult clients

• Conduct comprehensive voice, upper airway, swallowing, and/or communication evaluations as appropriate for both pediatric and adult patients

  • Resonance

  • Intonation/prosody

  • Vocal quality and endurance

  • Communication style and self-perception

  • Vocal health and sustainability

  • Respiratory-phonatory coordination and upper airway function

  • Swallowing safety and efficiency as appropriate

• Incorporate asynchronous therapy and home practice platforms including but not limited to:

  • VoiceEvalU8

  • Voice Practice

  • Praat

  • Additional acoustic analysis and self-monitoring tools

• Commitment to affirming, client-centered, trauma-informed care

• Strong communication and organizational skills

• Comfort and experience with technology and telepractice platforms

*Clinical Support & Mentorship

CFY applicants are welcome and encouraged to apply; however due to the specialized and largely autonomous nature of this role with limited direct in-person supervision during the initial probationary period, this position is likely best suited for a CCC-SLP.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Gender-affirming voice therapy

  • Voice disorders

  • Swallowing assessment and dysphagia treatment

  • Singing voice rehabilitation

  • Resonance and acoustic analysis

  • Counseling and motivational interviewing

• Experience with telehealth service delivery (HIPAA-compliant Zoom platform)

• Interest in clinical specialization and ongoing continuing education

Clinical Growth & Long-Term Opportunities

Following successful completion of the probationary period (approximately 90 days of service provision), expansion of clinical responsibilities may be considered based on:

• Community need within a) Vermont and/or b) additional U.S. states/territories

• Employee clinical strengths and interests

• Practice growth initiatives

This may include gradual expansion into additional specialty populations and services within the clinician’s scope and interests, especially swallowing assessment and dysphagia management if desired and clinically appropriate.

Following successful completion of the probationary period, future opportunities for service provision via telehealth platform to clients located outside of Vermont may be considered based on practice need, clinician interest, and licensure eligibility. Support with obtaining out-of-state licensure may also be available as part of long-term clinical expansion efforts.

Opportunities may also include:

• Paid participation in market research initiatives

• Data-driven marketing and outreach efforts

• Collaborative program development alongside current Office Manager and CEO/Practice Owner

• Participation in community education and specialty service expansion

Compensation & Benefits

• Hourly W2 position

• Compensation negotiable based on experience, specialization, and caseload

• Opportunity for long-term employment and flexible PTO options beyond maternity leave coverage

Health Insurance Benefits

Following completion of the initial onboarding period and 90-day probationary period, employees may become eligible for health insurance reimbursement benefits through an Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangement (ICHRA) model.

Under this model:

• Employees select an individual health insurance plan that best fits their needs

• Eligible healthcare premiums and qualified medical expenses may be reimbursed on a tax-free basis by the employer

• This model offers increased flexibility and personalization compared to traditional group insurance plans

Additional details regarding reimbursement structure, eligibility, onboarding, and plan administration will be discussed during the hiring process.

• Continued employment, expanded responsibilities, and long-term benefit opportunities remain contingent upon successful completion of the probationary period and overall clinical performance

• Clinicians providing telehealth services exclusively will be responsible for obtaining and maintaining:

  • Their own computer

  • Reliable high-speed internet connection

• In-office instrumentation and specialty equipment for FEES and videostroboscopy are provided by the practice
