EVALUATION
All evaluations are conducted by a Speech-Language Pathologist holding a Master's degree or higher. Standardized tests are utilized, in addition to clinician observation, to get a full picture of a child’s abilities before developing an individualized treatment plan. All evaluations include a consultation with a clinician to discuss the proposed treatment plan, as well as parental concerns, before moving forward with therapy services.

THERAPY
All therapy sessions are one-on-one to provide each child with undivided, individual attention. We offer options for sessions to take place in office, in home or at school. Sessions last 30 minutes and include detailed notes of all that was completed during each session, as well as exercises that can be done outside of the session to encourage consistency and improvement. Our clinicians are committed to continuing education, ensuring that the best and most recent practices are used in all sessions.
