Speech-Language Therapy

A friendly, engaging environment that drives children to understand and use language independently, becoming successful communicators.

Speech and language therapy can help improve:

Comprehension and expression through language
Speech sound production
Executive function skills
Auditory skills

As a parent or caregiver, you are integral to your child's success. In addition to participating in therapy, you'll learn strategies to help your child communicate effectively with those around them.

Developmental Communication Milestones

We strongly recommend speaking with a speech-language professional if your child shows any of the following signs.

Doesn't use gestures like waving "bye bye" or shaking head for "no"
Doesn't respond to their name
Doesn't communicate in some way when they need help with something

By 24 months

Says fewer than 100 words
Isn't consistently joining two words together, like "Daddy go"

3–4 years

Doesn't ask questions by 3 years
Isn't using sentences (e.g., "I don't want that") by three years
