Mosaic is a non-profit organization founded and operated by two Speech-Language Pathologists with a shared vision for an interdisciplinary and collaborative clinic in Santa Barbara. They began collaborating as colleagues while working int he schools. Together, they bring their unique experiences and specialties to the collective along with the passion to collaborate with other disciplines to provide the best care possible.
Sharon "Shay" MacDonald is the Founder and Executive Director of Mosiac Therapy Collective a 501(c)(3) accredited nonprofit organization with a mission to empower local therapists through entrepreneurship, collaboration, and community — all with an emphasis on providing therapy with equity.
A certified TESOL educator and former kindergarten teacher, Shay found her calling as a Speech-Language Pathologist. She earned her Master’s degree in Communicative Sciences and Disorders, graduating summa cum laude from New York University’s Steinhardt School. Shay brings extensive expertise in the assessment and treatment of individuals with developmental delays and disabilities, and she works collaboratively with families, therapists, and interdisciplinary teams to deliver evidence-based, client-centered care.
“It has always been important to me for families to access quality services that prioritize convenience, community, and affordability. As a speech-language pathologist practicing privately in Santa Barbara, I quickly discovered that the high cost of space would force me to raise my prices — creating barriers for some families in our community. With a desire to make services more equitable, I knew we needed to rethink the model and create affordable, collaborative spaces for providers to serve.”
Driven by this vision, Shay has spearheaded initiatives throughout Santa Barbara County to improve communication supports and expand resources for marginalized communities to promote inclusion and neurodiverse affirming supports in county-wide. She collaborates with local school districts, public agencies, and nonprofit organizations to advance equitable access to therapy services. In addition to her leadership at Mosaic, Shay continues to operate a private practice, provides case management and direct services in the schools, lectures at University of California Santa Barbara, operates their student clinical internship program, mentoring students pursuing careers in the health and human service industry
