Empowering communication through empathy and expertise.

Speech Therapy

Our Vision

At Progressions, we specialize in providing tailored speech and language therapy to families in Charlotte, Sarasota, and DeSoto Counties. Our focus is on collaborating with families and caregivers to offer evidence-based, neurodiversity-affirming interventions in everyday settings. Together, we work towards helping your child achieve developmental milestones, enhance communication skills, and reach academic achievements. While we address various pediatric communication disorders, our expertise lies in supporting Autism, Gestalt Language Processing, AAC systems, Articulation/Speech Sound Production, Phonological Disorders, and Language Comprehension and Expression deficits in toddlers and school-aged children.

Not every child needs speech therapy... but every family can benefit from individualized collaboration with a Pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist

Whitney Armenio, MS CCC-SLP

Speech-Language Pathologist

After more than ten years providing therapy to toddlers, school-aged children, and young adults, I’m thrilled and thankful for the opportunity to work with you and your family on this journey toward improved speech, language, and communication skills. I believe that everyone deserves to express themselves confidently and effectively, and it is my mission to provide a supportive, engaging, and nurturing environment to make that a reality.


I delight in taking a personalized approach to therapy, tailoring each session to meet the specific needs of every client through child-led, sensory-friendly strategies that encourage learners to progress most efficiently. I believe in empowering my clients and their families, working collaboratively to develop effective systems and exercises that can be incorporated into daily life while keeping therapy fun and engaging.


As a therapist, I strive to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels comfortable and encouraged. I believe that a positive and enjoyable therapy experience is crucial for progress. By keeping sessions engaging, fun, and interactive, and utilizing innovative techniques and evidence-based practices, I promise to provide the highest quality of care. I will forever be grateful for the opportunity to provide your little one the support they need to reach their fullest potential!
