Speech Therapy

The pediatric speech-language pathologist (SLP) works with children who have deficits in the areas of communication, language skills, oral motor control, feeding/swallowing issues, or hearing-related concerns. They can address the need for specialized communication devices, which can range from simple (such as word cards) to voice-generated communication devices.

When does my child need Speech Therapy?

Pediatric speech therapy is recommended when a child is not demonstrating age-appropriate vocalizations or receptive/expressive communication, poor oral motor control, self-feeding concerns, or issues related to their hearing (including hearing aids, etc). Our therapists are available to evaluate your child to determine if appropriate for ST and to create a treatment plan that fits your child's needs.
