M.S CCC-SLP
Taylor Janca, co-owner of Amplifying Potential Therapy, is a dedicated speech-language pathologist committed to helping children and young adults thrive across all areas of life. She holds a Bachelor of Science in special education from the University of Missouri and a Master of Science in communicative sciences and disorders from New York University.

Taylor is especially passionate about working with autistic individuals, AAC users, bilingual learners, and those navigating executive functioning challenges or difficulties in expressive, receptive, and pragmatic language. Her therapeutic approach is individualized, strengths-based, and deeply respectful of neurodiversity.
Central to Taylor’s work is the belief that authentic communication flourishes in the context of trusted relationships. She prioritizes connection, knowing that meaningful growth happens when clients feel safe, seen, and celebrated.
Taylor encourages each person she supports to share their goals, interests, values, and unique gifts, so together they can develop a communication style that truly reflects who they are. She sees communication not as a checklist of skills, but as a dynamic expression of identity—something to be honored, cultivated, and empowered.
