About NeuroGrove

Christine Scalise, M.S., CCC-SLP, CBIS
Speech-Language Pathologist | Certified Brain Injury Specialist

NeuroGrove Speech was founded by Christine Scalise, a neurodivergent Speech-Language Pathologist, to create a space where children, teens, and adults can build communication skills that support their everyday lives. Her personal experience with neurodivergence informs an approach centered on authentic communication, confidence, and individualized support.

Christine holds a Bachelor's degree in Communicative Sciences and Disorders from the University of Central Florida and a Master's degree in Communicative Sciences and Disorders from California State University, Northridge. Her experience includes schools, outpatient neurorehabilitation, home health, pediatric care, and private practice across several states.

Christine is certified in TAG VITAAL-K™ Therapy, a movement-based, multisensory literacy framework that combines rhythmic routines, cognitive activities, and structured literacy support for children with dyslexia, ADHD, and related reading challenges. She supports individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI), concussion, stroke, cognitive-communication challenges, neurodivergence, dyslexia, language disorders, and social communication differences.

Therapy at NeuroGrove is collaborative, strengths-based, and tailored to each person's goals, needs, and communication style. Whether the goal is support at school or work, greater confidence in conversations, stronger executive functioning, or practical strategies for daily life, Christine focuses on meaningful skills that carry beyond the therapy session.
