Speech Therapy
Speech therapy helps children develop the communication skills they need to express themselves, understand others, and connect with the world around them. Speech-language pathologists support speech, language, social communication, feeding, swallowing, voice, fluency, and AAC.
What to Expect During Speech Therapy
Sessions are individualized and may include play, games, books, conversation, or structured activities. Therapists build communication skills through engaging experiences that match each child's interests and goals.
Speech therapy may help children who:
Are late to begin talking
Are difficult to understand
Have trouble understanding or using language
Struggle with conversations or social communication
Stutter or have voice concerns
Have feeding or swallowing difficulties
A speech and language evaluation can help determine the best next steps.
