Creating Transformative Experiences

For nearly a decade, Therapy Abroad has led the way in creating transformative international experiences for students and professionals in Speech-Language Pathology (SLP) and Communication Sciences & Disorders (CSD). As our global community has grown, so too has our vision — from student-focused programs to professional development, service learning, and international collaboration.

 

SLP Abroad is the natural evolution of that work: a global platform designed to support speech-language pathologists, speech therapists, logopedians, speech and language therapists, communication specialists, and allied health professionals around the world.

We exist to create long-term, high-impact opportunities for learning, service, and connection — empowering communication professionals everywhere to make a difference across languages, cultures, and communities.

Creating Transformative International Experiences

What We Do

Global Academic Experiences: Semester and short-term programs for CSD and related disciplines, blending education, culture, and impact.

Professional & Early-Career Pathways: Opportunities for recent graduates, CFY candidates, and experienced practitioners to expand their work globally.

CEU & Continuing Education Workshops: Focused on cultural and linguistic diversity, inclusion, ethics, and global best practices in communication sciences.

Service Learning & Volunteer Projects: Community-based programs designed to promote sustainable impact and meaningful professional exchange.

Health & Wellness Programs: Restorative, evidence-informed experiences that help professionals prevent burnout and reconnect with their sense of purpose.

Our Mission

To build a more connected, culturally competent, and compassionate global community of professionals dedicated to communication and human connection.

We help participants cut through the red tape of international work and collaboration, providing structured, ethical, and sustainable opportunities for continuing education, professional practice, and personal renewal.

Through our programs, participants gain the skills, confidence, and cross-cultural perspective to serve diverse populations both at home and abroad — while rediscovering joy and balance in their professional journey.

Our Vision

A world where communication professionals — from speech-language pathologists to logopedians, speech therapists, and educators — collaborate across cultures to improve lives through understanding, inclusion, and voice.

We envision a global network of clinicians and educators who are rejuvenated, inspired, and empowered to lead with empathy and cultural humility in every setting.

Our Roots

SLP Abroad is powered by Therapy Abroad, Inc., a leader in global health and human sciences education. For more than ten years, Therapy Abroad has delivered immersive, ethical, and academically rigorous programs in Belize, Thailand, Dominica, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, and beyond.
