What SLPs Say About Us

I have had nothing but positive experiences with PNW Professionals. As someone who was hesitant to switch over to contract speech therapy, Erikkson has helped me feel confident every step of the way. Erikkson is a strong advocate, skilled SLP, and competent business person. He is transparent about pay, placements, and has excellent communication skills with clients and employees. I highly recommend PNW Professionals to any SLP looking into contract work in the Pacific Northwest. - Sarah H., CCC-SLP

PNW Professionals has been SUCH an incredible company to work for as an SLP. Erikkson works hard to find outstanding contracts for his employees, and has demonstrated great communication and transparency since day one. I was initially very nervous about transitioning from a private practice to the school setting, but the logistics of the offered contract seemed too good to pass up, and I am so glad that I took the leap! As a fellow SLP, Erikkson was able to provide me with extensive training and support for all of the paperwork and special education processes, making the transition so seamless. I cannot recommend this company enough! - Cassidey H., CCC-SLP

As a seasoned SLP traveler, this is THE best travel company around. After working with Erikkson as a traveler, I could never go back to the bigger agencies. The fact Erikkson is a practicing SLP made him understanding and invaluable because he understood any issues I had and quickly helped resolved them. - Dr. Katie P., PhD CCC-SLP
