Mrs. Makarevich ~ Speech & Language Specialist

Speech Therapists Make a Difference One Word at a Time

Welcome to my page!  I have had the privilege of being a Speech Therapist for the past 34 years.  As a graduate of Hackettstown High School, the Hackettstown School District has always held a special place in my heart.  My educational background includes a bachelor’s degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders, a master’s degree in Speech and Language Pathology and a Certificate of Clinical Competence through the American Speech, Language, Hearing Association (ASHA). I have also received the ACE award for continuing education from ASHA.  I am very passionate about my profession and love helping children find their voice. 

Please feel free to contact me regarding any problems related to speech and language development including:

Articulation-trouble producing certain sounds or classes of sounds or omitting sounds when communicating

Fluency-repetitions, hesitations and interruptions to clear, smooth speech

Voice-speech that sounds raspy, hoarse or breathy for long periods of time and that are not related to a cold or illness

Language-trouble processing and understanding age-appropriate language skills that are necessary to be successful within school
