Liz Gangware
MA, CCC-SLP
Liz holds a bachelor’s degree in Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences, a Certificate in Cognitive Science, and an SLP-A Certificate from the University of Colorado at Boulder (CU). She obtained her master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of Akron.
Liz comes to CST with a special connection to the clinic, having had the opportunities to study under Mary Wallace as a nanny for a child who stuttered in 2013, and under Chelsea Blanchard during her graduate internship/clinical rotations in 2023. She has a passion for working with people with disabilities and has worked as a respite provider for children with a variety of developmental disabilities including autism, cerebral palsy, and down syndrome. She has also spent time as an adult day-program staff, a manager for an after-school program for kids with disabilities, a 1-on-1 para for a nonverbal 1st grade student with Angelman syndrome, and an SLP-Assistant in Jeffco and Adams 12. Spending time with this population drew her into the world of stuttering, and she developed a love for fluency therapy during her time in these roles, in part due to her training at CST. She has experience working with fluency, speech sound disorders, AAC, expressive/receptive language disorders, pragmatics disorders, cognition, voice, and CAS.
Outside of the clinic Liz loves gardening, volunteering, walking her dog, cooking, baking, and making music. You can find her singing across the Colorado front range with organizations such as Opera Colorado, The Colorado Symphony, and Central City Opera.
