Speech Therapist Jobs in Virginia: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a speech therapist in Virginia?

To become a speech therapist in Virginia, you must earn a master's degree in speech-language pathology from a CAA-accredited program, complete your Clinical Fellowship Year under a licensed supervisor, and obtain a license from the Virginia Board of Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology, which operates under the Virginia Department of Health Professions. Most employers also require or strongly prefer the ASHA Certificate of Clinical Competence before or shortly after hire.

How much do speech therapists make in Virginia?

Speech therapists 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 therapists in Virginia?

Employers hiring speech therapists in Virginia right now include Powerback Rehabilitation, Voyage Health, and Riverside Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Virginia's mix of large integrated health systems, school divisions, and contract staffing agencies means hiring is spread across both clinical and educational settings throughout the state.

Which Virginia cities have the most speech therapist jobs?

Richmond, Roanoke, and Newport News have the most speech therapist openings in Virginia right now. Northern Virginia's density of school divisions and pediatric clinics tied to the D.C. metro drives volume there, while Richmond's concentration of major health systems and Virginia Beach's large military family population and growing outpatient sector account for consistent demand in those markets.

Are there remote speech therapist jobs in Virginia?

Yes, but they're limited compared to desk-based fields, since most speech therapy work requires in-person patient contact. About 0% of speech therapist openings tied to Virginia are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting that telepractice is most viable for school-based consultations, certain adult cognitive-communication sessions, and supervisory or clinical coordinator roles rather than hands-on acute care or feeding therapy positions.

How can I get hired as a speech therapist in Virginia with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is securing a Clinical Fellowship Year position, which is the supervised post-graduate step required before independent licensure in Virginia. Large Virginia health systems such as Inova Health System, Sentara Healthcare, and VCU Health regularly bring on clinical fellows, and many Virginia school divisions hire CFY candidates directly into school-based roles. Completing your ASHA CFY under a CCC-SLP supervisor and holding an active Virginia provisional license gives you a clear competitive edge over candidates still awaiting credentialing.

Where can I find and apply to speech therapist jobs in Virginia?

You can find and apply to speech therapist jobs in Virginia on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings across the state. Search the listings, find roles that match your experience and preferred setting, and apply directly to the ones that fit.
