Pediatric Speech and Language Therapy
Pediatric Speech & Language Therapy helps children develop the communication skills they need to connect, express themselves and engage with the world around them. We support speech, language, early communication, fluency, social communication and alternative and augmentative communication (AAC). Through engaging, individualized and age-appropriate therapy, we help children strengthen meaningful communication while working closely with families to build these skills into everyday routines and help every child find their voice.
Why families come to us
- A toddler who isn't talking as expected
- Speech that's difficult for others to understand
- A limited vocabulary for their age
- Difficulty understanding or following instructions
- Stuttering or getting stuck on words
- Challenges with social communication
Signs your child may benefit
- Fewer words than other children the same age
- Becomes frustrated when trying to communicate
- Strangers struggle to understand them after age 3
- Doesn't respond consistently to their name or simple directions
- Repeats sounds or words, or gets 'stuck' when speaking
- Relies on gestures more than words
What to expect at an evaluation
No pressure, no jargon - just a relaxed first visit focused on your child.
We listen first
You know your child's communication best - we start with your observations, history and worries.
We play and assess
Through books, toys and conversation, we gently assess speech sounds, language and understanding.
We plan together
You'll leave knowing where your child is, what to encourage at home and how therapy can help.
