Therapy

The biggest mistake is believing there is one right way to listen, to talk, to have a conversation -- or a relationship. - Deborah Tannen

Language is the connection to our thoughts and feelings.  We use language to learn, think and share our ideas.  We use language to communicate with others, to establish connections, and to navigate relationships. 

Speech and language therapy can help children with speech, language and/or cognitive disorders learn to communicate more clearly and effectively.  Compensatory strategies can also be taught and implemented to support a child’s weaknesses.  Our philosophy is to work closely with parents to help parents understand their child’s needs and to help your child generalize newly learned skills outside of the clinic. 

Our clinicians continually attend workshops and seminars to maintain the highest level of knowledge and expertise as we strive to provide the highest quality of services to you and your child.  We are well versed in the connection between spoken language and literacy and in remediation of reading disorders and have been specially trained in the following programs:

  • Reading with TLC (Telian-Cas Learning Concepts, Inc.)
  • Lindamood Phoneme Sequencing Program (LiPS®) for Reading, Spelling, and Speech
  • RAVE-O Reading Fluency approach (© 2011 Center for Reading and Language, Tufts University)

Individual therapy is available for your child, specifically tailored to address your child’s individual needs.  Group therapy with other children similar to your child in age and needs may also be appropriate as another option.  We provide services for children who have difficulties with:
