Speech Therapy
Disorders like Childhood Apraxia of Speech, Dysarthria, Speech Sound Disorders, Stuttering, and language-based learning difficulties can be medically concerning problems. Addressing speech and language disorders in early childhood can be crucial to establishing foundational communication skills before school.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy is a service that addresses everyday life. Examples of an individual’s occupations include playing, participating in school activities/social groups/extracurricular activities, employment, completing self-cares (brushing teeth, dressing, making a snack), and being part of a family unit or friend group.
