About Sterling Speech Associates

Sterling Speech Associates, LLC is operated as a local, small, minority-owned business that is led by a seasoned, licensed speech-language pathologist, Tamela (Tami) Sterling with over twenty-two years of experience providing all aspects of speech-language therapy services to students in the Charter schools of the District of Columbia. After working in various leadership roles for non-public schools and different staffing agencies as a subcontractor, Tami discovered that independent clinicians had a limited network, an underserved understanding of the communities and a climate where the agencies valued themselves over clinician quality of life and their work product. In October 2012, Tami decided to “give it a go” and independently established Sterling Speech Associates, LLC. After responding to several Request For Proposals for Speech and Language Services, in the summer of 2013, she won her inaugural contract. In January of 2014, less than six months later, she received additional assistance for speech therapy services from another school. Using her extensive network, Tami fulfilled that request by hiring her 1st contract clinician into Sterling Speech. Holding to her original vision, Tami has created a space for highly skilled sub-contractor professionals to work in an environment where they are supported by a team-oriented agency. It all started with Tami as a sole proprietor, and has now developed into an agency with more than 17 clinicians, who deliver professional services from a variety of domains for more than fifteen scholastic programs in the District of Columbia. Over the years, her business continued to grow, exclusively on the strength of her reputation, professionalism, and the Sterling Speech ethos of “treating the whole child”.
