Speech-Language Therapy focuses on the treatment of communication delays and disorders. Communication is a combination of speech, receptive language (understanding), expressive language (what you say), cognitive communication (what you think), executive function, fluency (stuttering), voice, and pragmatic communication (social skills). Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) work with students to become confident communicators.
Our Speech-Language Pathologists are highly trained professionals who work with children who have difficulties in the following areas: speech sound production (articulation, phonology, apraxia), receptive and or expressive language delays, Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) interventions, pragmatic skills, fluency/stuttering concerns, and executive functioning.
Enrollment in our program includes a formal evaluation in which our speech therapists conduct a series of assessments and observations using standardized testing to determine your child’s current functional level and areas of need. Following the evaluation if therapy is recommended your child will be recommended for 1:1 therapy based on the results of the evaluation.
The Learning Spectrum focuses on using naturalistic learning and is client-centered. Our therapists focus on play-based learning.
