Speech Therapy

Therapy Associates provides speech and language therapy for children of all ages in a positive and fun environment in order to optimize their communication abilities. Speech therapy is provided in an individual and/or group therapy session, which is determined by their communication needs.

AREAS A SPEECH-LANGUAGE PATHOLOGIST CAN ADDRESS:

Articulation:

The clarity with which a person speaks. Therapists will work on producing speech sounds that are difficult for some children to produce.

Voice:

The quality of the voicing while a person speaks. Therapists will address how to use voice properly such as decreasing hypernasality, hyponasality and vocal abuse.

Receptive Language:

The understanding of speech sounds, sentences, grammatical structures, and implication of what someone says. Therapists will work with following directions, difficulty understanding spoken language and delayed vocabulary.

Expressive Language:

How an individual uses language, uses vocabulary, builds sentences, grammatical structures and expresses meaning. Therapists will target delayed vocabulary, syntax/grammar and other language disorders.

Pragmatic/Social Language:

How an individual uses the language they have socially in their relationships with their peers, family and acquaintances. Therapists will address using language appropriately in social contexts.

Stuttering:

The smoothness, speed, and rhyme of speech. Therapists will target strategies to becoming a fluent speaker, along with suggestions in creating an environment within the home to overcome stuttering.

Augmentative/Alternative Communication:

AAC refers to any approach designed to support, enhance, or supplement the communication of individuals who are not independent verbal communicators in all situations. AAC modalities may include picture/symbol systems, electronic voice output devices, sign language, etc.
