Here’s what you need to know about our program:
Holistic Approach
We believe in a holistic approach to pediatric speech therapy. We consider the unique needs, strengths, and goals of each child, taking into account their individual personality, learning style, and communication challenges. Our therapists work closely with families and other professionals involved in the child’s care to ensure a collaborative and integrated approach.
Expert Evaluation
Our experienced speech-language pathologists conduct thorough evaluations to assess speech and language skills, including articulation, phonology, myofunctional, feeding, swallowing, voice, stuttering, AAC, expressive and receptive language, pragmatics, executive functioning, and self-advocacy. Through a comprehensive assessment process, we gain valuable insights into the child’s communication abilities and identify areas of focus.
Individualized Treatment Plans
Based on the evaluation results, we develop personalized treatment plans tailored to each child’s specific needs and goals. Our therapy sessions are designed to be engaging, fun, and age-appropriate, utilizing evidence-based techniques and activities to maximize progress and facilitate optimal communication development.
Social Communication and Pragmatic Skills
Our social communication therapy is driven by client goals and experiences. We honor all forms and styles of communication and promote self-advocacy in our work.
Early Intervention
We recognize the importance of early intervention in speech therapy. Our program is designed to support infants, toddlers, and preschoolers in reaching important communication milestones. We work closely with families to provide guidance, resources, and strategies for supporting language development at home.
Family Involvement
We believe that family involvement is key to successful therapy outcomes. We provide education, training, and ongoing support to parents and caregivers, empowering them to actively participate in their child’s progress. We collaborate with families to create a nurturing and stimulating communication environment.
Continued Support
Our commitment extends beyond therapy sessions. We provide continued support, progress monitoring, and regular communication with families and other professionals involved in the child’s care. We believe in fostering a long-term partnership to ensure the best possible outcomes for each child.
