Articulation

Articulation therapy helps children improve how they pronounce sounds, making their speech clearer and easier to understand.

This type of therapy focuses on specific sounds that are challenging for the individual to produce correctly.
Through engaging activities, repetition, and guided practice, each child will improve their ability to produce each targeted sound correctly.

Language includes both understanding what we hear and expressing what we want to say.

A language disorder happens when a child has trouble understanding what others are saying, sharing their thoughts clearly, or both.
Through language therapy, we work together to strengthen these skills, helping your child communicate more easily and confidently in everyday life.

Stuttering or speech fluency involves the flow of speech without unintended disruption to the flow when speaking.

Fluency disorders, also known as stuttering, occur when the flow of speech is disrupted and characterized by sound repetitions, word repetitions, prolongations or blocks to the fluency of speech.
Stuttering therapy consists of learning and using compensatory strategies to improve the smooth flow of speech while increasing the individual’s confidence in their ability to move through the stuttering episodes as they occur.

Social communication involves skills that are used in social contexts.

Social Skills are used to form friendships, tell stories about our day, thinking about others’ perspectives during social interactions, reading nonverbal communication, adjusting our behavior in response to different environments and much more.
Social communication therapy consists of helping individuals learn about the many facets of social communication and explicitly teaching them specific social skills for varying contexts through the use of storybooks, problem solving scenarios and video modeling.
