Nicole Schultz, M.S., CCC-SLP
Owner, Speech-Language Pathologist
Nicole ("Ms. Nikki") is a pediatric speech therapist with experience working with children of all ages. She received her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Bachelor of Science in Human Development from Binghamton University. Following two years of service in the Peace Corps, she returned to school and received her Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology from Molloy University.
Nicole founded Schultz Speech Therapy because she saw a need in her community for neurodiversity-affirming speech therapy services for kids. She is trained in Natural Language
Acquisition (NLA) which allows her to fill the gap in services for children that are gestalt language processors. Nicole is passionate about providing individualized care and attention to each family she serves. She dedicates time to parent coaching and questions and welcomes the opportunity to collaborate with other important people on your child's team (e.g., teachers, other therapists, etc.). She also serves as an advocate for her clients, including attending IEP meetings if needed.
Outside of work, Nicole is a busy mom of 3 small children and is often found shuttling them to and from extracurricular activities. In her free time, she enjoys strength training in her home gym, reading, and exploring local events and activities with her family.

GETTING STARTED WITH
Schultz Speech THERAPY is easy
STEP ONE
Contact us to begin with a free consultation where we will discuss your concerns, your child's skills and needs, and determine if Schultz Speech Therapy is a good fit.
STEP two
Based on your child's needs, we will begin with an evaluation or an informal assessment to guide our treatment planning and goals for therapy.
STEP THREE
Begin therapy services! We will meet in our welcoming clinic located in East Brunswick, NJ. The frequency and duration of speech therapy will depend on your child's needs and goals.
billing & insurance
Schultz Speech Therapy is not currently in-network with insurance. We are a private pay practice, allowing us the ability to provide individualized services at a frequency and duration that meets the needs of our clients (instead of being determined by the insurance companies). We provide support for out-of-network reimbursement.
