About this role
The specialist role is designed for the clinician whose CEU history already tells the story — you've been moving toward one focus area for a while, and you're ready to make it the whole job instead of a third of it.
Dixon is home to STC's headquarters and clinic at 255 N. Lincoln Street, which means you're working alongside the leadership team — not reporting into a regional rep three time zones away.
Clinic-based specialty SLPs in Dixon carry a 30-40 case pediatric caseload with 60%+ in the focus area. You'll run assessment evaluations at a premium rate across STC's clinic network when your specialty's in demand, own protocol documentation for your area, and consult on complex cases the generalist team flags.
Specialty focus: AAC device programming (Proloquo2Go, TouchChat, LAMP), core-vocabulary implementation, and family coaching so devices actually get used outside the session room.
What this role looks like
- Direct input on assessment batteries and protocol development for your specialty area
- Cross-site consultation — you're the go-to for other SLPs' complex cases in your area
- Conference support — we send specialists to ASHA Convention and at least one specialty-specific conference annually
- Mentorship slot — you can supervise CFs or guide junior SLPs in your specialty (compensated separately)
Who thrives here
If you've been picking up specialty cases at your current job without the specialty caseload, title, or pay — that's the gap we built this role to close. Come in credentialed or come in with a specialization plan, and we'll fund the certification.
Highlights & benefits
- Protocol ownership in your specialty area
- Cross-site consultation at a premium rate
- Protected specialty caseload (60%+ focus-area cases)

Requirements
Required
- Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology from an ASHA-accredited program (CAA)

- Current California SLP license
- Minimum 2 years post-CF clinical experience with demonstrated work in the specialty area
- DOJ/FBI Live Scan fingerprint clearance, TB clearance within 12 months, current CPR certification (we reimburse renewal)
