At our practice, we provide the following:

Articulation/Phonological Treatment

An articulation disorder involves problems making sounds (for example a lisp or an R distortion). Sounds can be substituted, left off, added or changed. These errors may make it hard for children to be understood.  A phonological process disorder involves patterns of sound errors.  Both are treated with a multi-modality approach.  

*Apraxia Treatment*

Children with apraxia of speech know what words they want to say, but their brains have difficulty coordinating the muscle movements necessary to say those words.  Specialized training is used when working with children who are apraxic including PROMPT, Kaufman, Strand and Hammer methodologies.

 

Social Skills/Pragmatics Therapy

Some child are in need of learning how to greet others, converse with others, manage feelings and use that knowledge to understand the feelings of others.  Our goal is to increase social acceptance and aid in helping your child communicate with others.
