Pediatric Speech Therapy
There are many ways for children to communicate with their families and peers. Safe and effective feeding and swallowing is also a vital part of a child’s health. Our speech therapists are committed to improving speech, language, and oral-motor control in order for kids to interact effectively and make meaningful connections.
We consider each patient to be unique and develop individualized care for children with the following:
- Speech disorders such as articulation problems, apraxia, and fluency issues
- Expressive language disorder
- Receptive language disorder
- Social communication difficulties
- Oral-motor weakness
- Swallowing and feeding disorders in infants, toddlers, and older children
- Prematurity
- Neurological impairments
