Our speech therapists work with children who are having difficulty saying certain words, understanding language, or safely eating and swallowing. These difficulties may arise due to motor dysfunction, hearing problems, or other issues. Speech therapists specialize in strengthening oral muscles required for speaking, appropriate voice quality, and swallowing. Additionally, our speech therapists can assist families in the use of alternative communication devices (AACs) as needed.
