Descriptions of services available:
Basic Speech-Language Evaluation: Typically consists of: a formal language test to assess receptive language and expressive language; a formal articulation test to assess speech skills as well as informal assessment of voice, fluency, and oral mechanism.

Auditory Processing evaluation:
This is a two part evaluation. The assessment of language processing is conducted by a Speech-Language Pathologist, while the assessment of central auditory processing is conducted by an audiologist. The parts are completed separately, but results are presented by the co-disciplinary team (the audiologist and speech-language pathologist). This type of evaluation may be recommended if a child is having trouble in school, especially with following directions, understanding and remembering information presented orally, and/or focusing in a classroom environment. FOR MORE INFO on auditory processing please see our FAQ page!

Assessment of Language Based Learning Disorders:
This evaluation consists of a basic speech-language evaluation plus additional testing to identify specific deficit areas. This evaluation usually involves assessment of reading and writing skills. It may also include testing to examine problem solving skills, memory, phonological awareness skills, and reading comprehension skills. This type of evaluation may be recommended when a child is having difficulties in school, specifically with regard to reading, spelling, and/or writing skills.

Voice Evaluations:
This type of evaluation is usually recommended by an ENT doctor. This involves but is not limited to assessment of vocal quality, vocal range, and breath support.

Therapy services are designed from the therapist's interpretation of any of the evaluations. We offer individual and small group sessions. Therapy is designed to meet each client's individual needs. Our services may include enhancement of phonological awareness skills, strategies for improving reading comprehension, strategies for improving reading fluency, remediation of articulation errors and/or phonological processes, language stimulation, development of expressive language skills, strategies for increasing auditory memory, enhancing receptive language skills, etc. Our therapy programs also involve client specific home programs to further enhance and maximize the therapy process.
