Speech Therapy
From the day they’re born, children use their mouths to explore the world in all sorts of innovative ways outside the traditional functions of speaking and eating. When those functions don’t develop as expected, it can be exceptionally frustrating for them and their loved ones. If your child is having difficulty with speech, language, or feeding, speech therapy may be the answer. Our speech therapists can help children understand and process language, increase oral motor strength, and improve coordination to ease speech and feeding concerns.
Treatment sessions could include:
- Social Skills Training
- Language Development
- Articulation Therapy
- Feeding Therapy
Focused on:
- Chewing
- Oral sensitivities
- Jaw strength/coordination
- Oral motor training
- Swallowing Difficulties
- Stuttering Remediation

- Your child is difficult to understand or has specific sounds that are not produced correctly that are noticeable in daily speech.
