Meet Ramya

Ramya Shyam, M.S., CCC-SLP, is the owner of Flatirons Cognitive Therapy.  She grew up in Connecticut and completed her undergraduate degree at Brandeis University in Massachusetts.  She went on to complete a Master of Science degree in Speech-Language Pathology at the MGH Institute of Health Professions, an affiliate of Mass General Brigham.  

 

Ramya has worked in private practice since 2010, specializing in the assessment and treatment of individuals who have experienced cognitive-linguistic changes due to concussion, mild-moderate traumatic brain injury, stroke, dementia, various neurological diseases (e.g., multiple sclerosis), and chemotherapy.  She is also skilled in helping teenagers and adults with ADHD or executive functioning difficulties.  She completed several graduate-level courses in Special Education and has a background in teaching students ages 7-18.  

 

Ramya has expertise working with individuals who have had concussive injuries and has collaborated with neurologists, orthopedic physical therapists, physiatrists, vestibular physical therapists, chiropractors, neuro-optometrists, and psychologists over the years to ensure that patients get the best care.  Even if she is not the person you need to see, she can typically provide guidance to help you get the care you need.  

 

In her spare time, Ramya enjoys spending time with her family, volunteering in her children’s schools, lifting weights, reading, and traveling to new places.  Her favorite trip was to Peru, where she hiked the Inca Trail.
