Speech Therapy
Talking is one of the most difficult things that we do. Language and speech progressively build on our ability to listen and pay attention. As children, we practice and strengthen these skills through play. Nonverbal language such as hand gestures and facial expressions provides a means for expressing basic thoughts and needs until finally, we are able to communicate through speech. When this process is more challenging to master, it can take a lot of time and patience.
As speech-language pathologists, we work with our clients to identify deficits in speech, as well as receptive and expressive language. Once deficit areas have been identified, we develop a treatment plan with specific objectives designed to help the client achieve optimal communication skills.
