The Literacy, Language, and Learning Institute (3LI) was founded in the summer of 2012. Together, we have decades of clinical, teaching, and research experience with literacy, language, and learning difficulties experienced by both children and adults.
Drs. Katz and Pierson have a unique skill set: not only are we certified speech-language pathologists, but we have doctoral degrees in education with a specialty in literacy and learning disabilities—a rare combination. Given our expertise in both oral language and literacy disorders, we understand the intersection of language, reading, spelling, and writing in the context of learning.
At 3LI, we provide diagnostic assessment and therapeutic services, in the areas of literacy and language, to children and adults. We offer support and guidance to their family members as well as to schools, teachers, and other professionals. We deliver professional development seminars, webinars, and workshops on a variety of literacy, language, and learning topics for educators, mental health professionals, physicians, speech-language pathologists, and others.
We really love what we do, and we feel so fortunate to be able to help our clients meet with success in their educational, professional, and personal lives.
