Articulation and Phonological Disorders

• Therapy focuses on teaching correct sounds and patterns to improve speech clarity. Techniques involve sound modeling, phonetic placement cues, and multisensory feedback to help children produce speech sounds accurately.

Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS)

• Speech therapy emphasizes motor planning and sequencing for clear, coordinated speech. Techniques include repetitive, targeted sound and syllable practice to strengthen the brain-muscle connection needed for precise movements of the lips, tongue, and jaw.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

• Therapy aims to enhance social communication skills, including eye contact, turn-taking, and conversational skills. Intervention also focuses on receptive and expressive language, helping children understand and express emotions, ask questions, and respond to others.

Receptive and Expressive Language Disorders

• Therapy addresses understanding and producing language, with goals of expanding vocabulary, enhancing sentence structure, and improving comprehension and verbal expression. Activities include language-rich play and structured tasks that build both understanding and expression skills.

Fluency Disorders (Stuttering)

• Therapy provides strategies to increase fluency, such as slow speech and breath control, while reducing tension and anxiety related to speaking. Techniques focus on smoother speech production and building confidence in communication.

Social (Pragmatic) Communication Disorders

• Therapy helps children develop skills for interacting effectively with others. Focus areas include understanding nonverbal cues, maintaining appropriate topics, and following conversation rules to support friendships and classroom participation.

Voice Disorders

• Therapy works to improve vocal quality and reduce strain or hoarseness. Techniques target breath support, pitch, and resonance to produce a healthy, strong voice for clear communication.
