Most employers also expect or require the ASHA Certificate of Clinical Competence in Speech-Language Pathology. School-based SLPs working in Virginia public schools must additionally meet Virginia Department of Education licensure requirements.
How much do speech language pathologists make in Virginia?
Speech language pathologists in Virginia earn a median of about $96,250 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $66,890 for the lowest 10% to over $132,400 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire speech language pathologists in Virginia?
Employers hiring speech language pathologists in Virginia right now include HiredFirst, Ivy Rehab Network, and Ivy Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Virginia's mix of large integrated health systems, public school divisions, and rehabilitation networks means consistent openings across both clinical and educational settings throughout the state.
Which Virginia cities have the most speech language pathologist jobs?
Richmond, Danville, and Ashland have the most speech language pathologist openings in Virginia right now. Northern Virginia's concentration of large school systems and hospital campuses drives much of the volume there, while Richmond and Virginia Beach reflect the strong presence of anchor health systems like VCU Health and Sentara that maintain active SLP recruiting year-round.
Are there remote speech language pathologist jobs in Virginia?
Yes, but they're limited. About 19% of speech language pathologist openings tied to Virginia are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting the hands-on nature of most SLP work. Teletherapy roles serving school-based or pediatric outpatient populations represent the segment most likely to be delivered remotely, particularly for contractors and private practice settings.

The most realistic entry path is completing your clinical fellowship year with a Virginia employer who hires fellows directly, which large systems like Inova, Sentara, and VCU Health commonly do. Virginia public school divisions also hire clinical fellows and new graduates for school-based roles under Virginia Department of Education provisional licensure. Building a caseload in a related role such as speech-language pathology assistant can strengthen your application while you complete your fellowship and pursue full licensure.
