Speech and Language Therapy

 

 

Speech and language therapy focuses on evaluation and treatment of receptive/expressive language, articulation, oral motor, and social/pragmatic language skills. By developing an awareness of both verbal communication and body language, we strive to enhance your child's ability to understand information, ideas, and feelings expressed by others and to articulate his or her own thoughts, emotions and desires.
The Growing Together Therapeutic Center incorporates a scientific approach to its speech and language therapy program which works toward the following:

 

  • Correctly uttering sounds and pronouncing words
  • Developing proper voice control via vocal chords and breathing
  • Improving speech and reading comprehension
  • Correcting a stutter or stammer
  • Helping to improve language comprehension and production (e.g., grammar, vocabulary, conversation and story-telling skills)
  • Facilitating both spoken and written language
  • Teaching AAC (Augmentive and Alternative Communication) and assisting in learning Speech-Generating Devices (SGDs) in extreme cases
