Clinicians & team

Mia Shursky received her master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Boston University in 2026, after completing an undergraduate degree in Linguistics and Education Studies from Brandeis University. She is a speech-language pathology clinical fellow, holding a provisional speech-language pathology license from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Mia’s clinical experiences span from early intervention to older adult populations, and across multiple settings including private practice, public school, and at Boston Children’s Hospital’s Jay S. Fishman ALS Augmentative Communication Program. Mia has worked with a variety of profiles and diagnoses including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), Down’s syndrome, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), acquired neurogenic disorders, and otherwise complex medical needs.

Mia’s primary clinical interests include evaluating and supporting augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) use, social-pragmatic language, fluency, executive functioning, and supporting expressive and receptive language skills. Being fluent in Russian and an intermediate Spanish speaker, she is also passionate about bilingual language assessment and therapy. Mia strives to target individualized goals that are functional and meaningful to clients and their families, and to create a supportive environment that values the client’s unique interests, preferences, and sensory needs.

In her free time, Mia enjoys playing tennis, traveling, baking, and spending time with her family and friends.
