Speech Therapy
Our Speech and Language Pathologists work with children that are struggling with a range of difficulties, addressing any area that is impacting communicative interactions in their daily routines.
Our team has helped countless children with speech, language and social challenges reach their full potential.
We know that speech, language and social challenges are tied to developmental level, physical abilities, and sensory-motor capabilities. We collaborate with our network of occupational therapists and other child development professionals to ensure that we have an understanding of the whole child.
