Speech Therapy
School Skills
These include a range of abilities that enable success in a structured learning environment. They encompass academic understanding, social interaction, problem-solving, and physical control needed for writing and classroom participation. These abilities form the foundation for learning and collaboration.
Speech Sound Disorders
Speech sound disorders occur when a child has trouble pronouncing words clearly, which can make it harder for others to understand them. These issues may stem from problems with how sounds are made or how the brain organizes them. Speech therapy helps kids practice making the right sounds, improving their speech clarity over time.
Fluency Disorders
Fluency disorders, like stuttering, affect the smooth flow of speech, causing interruptions such as repeating sounds or words. This can make speaking feel frustrating or anxiety-provoking for those who experience it. A speech therapist can work with individuals on techniques to improve speech fluency and reduce the stress that comes with speaking.
Language Disorders
Language disorders can make it difficult for someone to understand or express themselves using words, whether in speech or writing. This may show up as challenges with vocabulary, grammar, or forming complete sentences. Through speech therapy, individuals can develop better communication skills and become more confident in expressing themselves.
Pragmatic Language Disorders
Pragmatic language disorder affects how someone uses language socially—like knowing when to take turns in conversation or how to read body language and tone. People with this disorder may find it harder to build relationships or engage in everyday social interactions. Speech therapy focuses on helping individuals understand social cues and practice more effective communication in social situations.
Cognitive-Communication Disorders
Cognitive-communication disorders happen when cognitive problems—like memory, attention, or problem-solving—affect a person’s ability to communicate. This can make it difficult to organize thoughts or express them clearly. Therapy targets these underlying cognitive skills, helping individuals think more clearly and communicate in a way that’s easier for others to understand.
Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS)
Childhood apraxia of speech is a motor speech disorder where the brain has trouble coordinating the muscles needed for clear speech. Children with CAS may have inconsistent or unclear speech, making it hard for others to understand them. With speech therapy, kids practice controlling these muscles, improving their ability to form words and speak more clearly.
Feeding/Swallowing Therapy
Feeding and swallowing therapy helps people who have trouble eating, drinking, or swallowing safely, often due to medical or developmental issues. These difficulties can lead to choking, coughing, or not getting enough nutrition. Therapists work on strengthening the muscles involved in swallowing, ensuring safer and more efficient feeding.
Occupational Therapy
Play-Based Social Skills Therapy
This therapy uses play as a foundation to teach critical interaction and communication abilities. Through structured games, role-playing, and imaginative activities, individuals learn to take turns, share, express emotions, and respond appropriately to social cues. The approach creates a fun and engaging environment that feels natural and enjoyable, especially for children who learn best through play. By building social confidence and fostering positive peer relationships, this service lays the groundwork for success in school, home, and community settings.
Visual Perceptual Skills
This refers to the capacity to process and interpret visual information effectively. It includes recognizing patterns, understanding spatial relationships, and identifying differences in objects. These abilities are vital for navigating spaces, reading, and engaging in tasks that require close visual attention.
Activities of Daily Living
These are essential tasks that individuals complete regularly to care for themselves and maintain independence. Examples include grooming, dressing, eating, and moving around. Proficiency in these areas supports personal well-being and autonomy in everyday life.
Self-Care Skills Training
This service focuses on helping individuals develop independence in essential daily routines such as dressing, grooming, eating, and hygiene. Therapists use step-by-step teaching methods, visual aids, and adaptive tools to meet each client’s unique needs and abilities. For children, this may involve learning to tie shoes, brush teeth, or use the restroom independently. For adults, it could include relearning skills after an injury or illness. The goal is to promote autonomy and improve overall quality of life through practical, individualized strategies.
Developmental Milestones Coaching
This service supports parents and caregivers in understanding and fostering their child’s developmental progress. Therapists guide families in recognizing important benchmarks in areas such as motor skills, communication, problem-solving, and social-emotional growth. Personalized coaching provides strategies, activities, and routines to encourage natural learning opportunities at home. By addressing delays early and building on strengths, this service empowers caregivers to confidently support their child’s development in a nurturing and effective way.
Social Skills Development
Activities focus on teaching children how to initiate and maintain conversations, understand social cues, take turns, and manage emotions. This is particularly helpful for children with autism, ADHD, or other conditions that affect social interactions.
Fine Motor Skills
These abilities involve the use and coordination of small muscles in the hands and fingers to perform detailed and precise movements. They are essential for tasks like gripping tools, fastening items, and manipulating small objects, supporting independence in everyday tasks and academic activities.
