Speech Language Pathologists evaluate and treat children of all ages with a wide variety of communication delays and disorders.

A child’s communication serves as a foundation for interacting with peers and adults. Communication is not only how a child produces sounds, but how they play and interact with their environment, how they understand what is said to them, and how they convey information to share their wants, needs, and interests. Following a 60-minute comprehensive evaluation to assess your child’s speech and language development, your child will participate in 30-minute treatment sessions with one of our skilled SLPs. Caregivers are welcome to join in to observe, ask questions, and develop skills to carry over speech and language strategies in the home environment. For younger children, therapy may look a lot like play as it is the best way for children to learn. Therapy may also look more direct, with one-on-one instruction to target your child's goals
