Director of Speech Therapy

Tyanna Turner, Director of Speech Therapy at Atlanta Autism Center, is a speech-language pathologist with seven years of experience. She likes to say, “I teach kids to talk back,” because empowering children to express themselves, communicate confidently, and advocate for their needs is at the heart of her work. Tyanna is proud to lead an incredible team of SLPs who share her passion for helping children find and use their voices.

Her favorite therapy activities are snack time and pretend play—whether cooking in a play kitchen or playing doctor. She enjoys using these familiar, everyday routines to create natural and engaging opportunities for children to request, comment, connect, and build meaningful communication skills.

Outside of work, Tyanna is a proud dog mom to Churro, her North Carolina native pup, and a foodie working her way through a bucket list of 100+ Atlanta restaurants.
