Pediatric Assessments may include both standardized and non standardized testing, language sampling, an oral motor or orofacial myofunctional exam, parental interview and informal observation of speech, language, play and feeding skills. Length of testing ranges from 1-2 hours, with follow-up testing provided as needed.

 

Treatment

Your child’s treatment plan is based on the results of his or her evaluation.  Intervention might only be necessary in one area, but often there are multiple issues that need to be addressed. We provide individualized, comprehensive and structured treatment that is effective and fun!Sessions are 30 or 50 minutes.

Apraxia / Articulation Problems – we help children produce clearer speech, improving and strengthening their oral motor skills and motor planning system
Attention Deficit Disorders (ADHD) – we help children achieve greater attention with cognitive-behavioral strategies (learning skills like organization and time management), and we are comfortable discussing medications, exercise and alternative treatments to make sure your child does his/her best at home and in school.
Autism (ASD) and Asperger’s Syndrome – we help children with a dynamic approach that integrates a developmental perspective and behavioral strategies. We identify your child’s strengths and leverage your child’s profile to maximize his/her verbal and social success.
Auditory Processing Disorders (C/APD) – we help children, families and schools to develop strategies for academic success in the face of auditory processing difficulties.
Dyslexia – whether your child has visual tracking difficulties or language based difficulties in literacy, we help children of all ages and levels progress in (and enjoy) reading (English / Greek)
Receptive / Expressive Language – we help children develop strategies to promote better oral and written expression (word-retrieval, vocabulary, spelling, etc.) and better listening and reading comprehension.
Late talkers – we help parents determine when to initiate therapy and when to hold-off and “watch and see.” We give parents the tools they need to facilitate their children’s speech-language development.
Other learning disabilities – we use our training and experience to understand, engage and motivate children with a wide range of learning profiles.

Voice Disorders - Through individual voice therapy, we aim to rehabilitate, enhance and protect your child’s voice — for now and for the future. We help children take control of their voice habits and routines with hands-on demonstrations and practical exercises. We coach parents through the process of making a difference in their child’s voice.

Stuttering - We educate parents and equip them with strategies to help their children.
We help children gain skills and confidence in speech.
