Our speech-language therapists provide a comprehensive evaluation focused on key components of communication including receptive language, expressive language, articulation, pragmatics, voice, fluency, oral-motor, feeding, swallowing, and hearing. Results of standardized assessments provide valuable information regarding communication skills.
At Pediatrics Plus, we recognize that standardized tests are only one component of a comprehensive assessment process; therefore, we combine information obtained from standardized assessments with thorough observation, information obtained through play-based interaction, and parent’s concerns and goals for their child to develop a personalized speech-language therapy intervention plan to address the child’s individual needs.
Our knowledgeable and skilled therapists utilize both play-based and clinician-directed activities in order to help each child reach his/her greatest potential. In addition, our highly trained therapists will implement each plan with selected interventions that may include, but are not limited to, the following treatment techniques:
- Receptive and expressive language development
- Social language development
- Traditional articulation therapy
- Cycles/Patterns Phonological Intervention
- Kaufman Speech Praxis Treatment
- Oral motor strengthening programs
- Beckman Oral Motor Protocol
- Fluency shaping techniques
