We are dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based speech therapy tailored to each child’s distinct needs.
Review the areas we specialize in below to see if your child may be a good fit for these services.
Speech Sound Disorders
When a child has trouble saying certain words, making it hard to understand what a child is trying to say. Speech sound disorders include:
Articulation Disorders
A speech disorder that impacts an individual's ability to coordinate their lips, tongue, teeth, palate, and lungs to produce certain sounds.
This also includes distortions of sounds. For example, “wed” for “red”, “wemon” for “lemon”, or “fank” for “thank”.
Phonological Process Disorders
A speech disorder that makes it difficult for children to organize sounds in their brain to form words correctly.
For example, “cu” for “cup”, “poon” for “spoon”, or “tephone” for “telephone”.
Language Delays & Disorders
A language delay or disorder in children is when they have trouble understanding or using spoken language at the age they are expected to. This can include difficulties with: responding to language, understanding words or sentences, following directions, learning words, putting words together to make sentences, and building vocabulary.
Some signs include:
Using repetitive words or phrases
Having trouble imitating sounds/words

Stuttering Therapy
Stuttering is a speech disorder characterized by repetition of sounds, syllables, or words; prolongation of sounds; and interruptions in speech known as blocks. An individual who stutters exactly knows what he or she would like to say but has trouble producing a normal flow of speech.
