Social Learning Practice

Kelly Bleckley is a Speech-Language Pathologist and founder of Social Learning Practice, specializing in social cognition, pragmatic language, and the communication skills that support meaningful relationships and everyday success. With more than 16 years of clinical experience, Kelly works with individuals across the lifespan to strengthen social understanding, perspective taking, emotional regulation, self-advocacy, and communication. Her approach recognizes that social learning is complex, focusing not simply on social “rules,” but on understanding the thinking behind interactions so skills can be applied flexibly across people, settings, and situations. Kelly’s journey in social learning began at the Teach Social Clinic in San Jose, where she learned from and collaborated with leaders in the field of social cognition before founding Social Learning Practice in 2012. Today, she partners closely with individuals, families, educators, and other professionals to provide thoughtful, individualized support that translates into greater confidence, independence, and success across relational, educational, and vocational settings.
