The types of speech therapy services offered include, but are not limited to the below. Note that we encourage you to get in touch to speak to a clinician about the communication challenge you're inquiring about.

Articulation Therapy:

• If someone has trouble saying certain sounds or words clearly, articulation therapy can help. This might involve practicing specific sounds and words over and over, using games and activities to make it fun. For example, a child who says "wabbit" instead of "rabbit" would work on the "r" sound.

Language Intervention Therapy:

• This therapy is for people who have difficulty with understanding and using language. It could be for someone who struggles with putting sentences together or understanding what others say. Activities might include storytelling, playing language-based games, or expanding vocabulary through fun exercises.

Voice Therapy:

• If someone’s voice sounds hoarse, too high or low, or they lose their voice often, voice therapy can help. This might involve exercises to strengthen the vocal cords, techniques to use the voice more efficiently, and strategies to protect the voice from strain.

Cognitive-Communication Therapy:

• For those who have had a brain injury or have conditions like dementia, this therapy focuses on improving thinking and communication skills. It might include memory exercises, problem-solving tasks, and strategies to organize thoughts and information better.

Social Communication Therapy:

• This service helps individuals who struggle with the social aspects of communication, like having conversations, understanding social cues, or making friends. Activities could include role-playing different social situations, learning how to read body language, and practicing appropriate responses.

Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC):

• For individuals who can’t speak or have severe speech difficulties, AAC provides alternative ways to communicate. This might involve using communication devices, picture boards, or sign language. It’s all about finding the best way for them to express themselves and interact with others.

Early Intervention Services:

• For very young children who show signs of developmental delays, early intervention is key. Speech therapists work with toddlers and their families to boost language development through play, songs, and interactive activities. The earlier the support, the better the outcomes.

Accent Modification:

• This service is for individuals who want to change or reduce their accent, often for clearer communication in professional or social settings. It involves learning the sounds and rhythms of the target accent through listening exercises, practice, and feedback.

Auditory Processing Therapy:

• For those who have trouble understanding and processing what they hear, this therapy focuses on improving listening skills. It might include activities that help distinguish different sounds, follow verbal instructions, and improve overall listening comprehension.
