Stuck In Motion

What Stuck In Motion does

Speech Language Pathology in Motion, PLLC (operating as Speech in Motion) is a private speech-language pathology practice founded in 2011 on Long Island, New York, by owner Tina M. Rocco. The practice delivers speech, language, feeding, and augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) therapy to both pediatric and adult clients. Its core differentiation is the integration of hippotherapy and animal-assisted therapy into standard speech-language interventions, delivered in partnership with Pal-O-Mine Equestrian on a 13-acre farm facility in Islandia, NY. The owner holds the Hippotherapy Clinical Specialist (HPCS) credential — held by approximately 11 practitioners globally — and the practice is the only American Hippotherapy Association (AHA) recognized Facility member on Long Island.\n\nThe clinical team comprises 5-6 specialized speech-language pathologists. Service delivery is hybrid: in-person sessions at the equestrian-based facility and HIPAA-compliant telepractice offered to clients across New York State. Adjacent service lines include the C.A.M.P. (Communication, Articulation, Movement, and Play) program, launched in 2016, and a clinical partnership with Occupational Therapy in Motion for cross-discipline care. The technology stack is limited to the telepractice platform; no proprietary clinical software, AI tooling, or data assets are referenced.\n\nThe business operates on a private-pay, per-session model with no insurance billing. Each client receives an individualized treatment plan. In 2024, the practice relocated onto the Pal-O-Mine Equestrian farm site and expanded its clinical team, indicating a scaling of capacity alongside its equestrian-therapy differentiation. There is no public revenue disclosure, no external funding history, and the customer base is a distributed long tail of hundreds of individual families.
