Meet Jennifer Montes De Oca

M.A., CCC-SLP · Owner & Clinical Director

Bilingual Bridge Speech Therapy is owned and operated by Jennifer Montes De Oca, M.A., CCC-SLP, a certified Speech-Language Pathologist through the American Speech and Hearing Association (ASHA) and licensed in the state of New Jersey. She is also certified by the New Jersey Department of Education as a Speech-Language Specialist.

Jennifer earned her Master of Arts in Speech-Language Pathology from Kean University, where she also completed her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, with a minor in Communication Disorders and Deafness.

Her work is grounded in individualized, evidence-based care that supports meaningful and functional communication across the lifespan—in school-based, medical, early intervention, and outpatient settings.

In schools, she evaluates, diagnoses, and treats students from kindergarten through high school with developmental language delays, autism spectrum disorders, language processing difficulties, executive functioning challenges, and articulation and phonological disorders.

In medical settings, she has supported adults and older adults with communication and swallowing disorders related to stroke, dementia, aphasia, apraxia, and cognitive-linguistic impairments—including facilitating bilingual (English/Spanish) group therapy sessions.

Across all settings, her approach remains consistent: thoughtful, individualized care that empowers each person to communicate with confidence, clarity, and connection.
