Our Services for Local Families
We offer a range of services designed to address various speech and language challenges:
Speech Assessment: We begin with a thorough assessment to identify the specific nature and extent of a child's speech difficulties. This may include difficulties with pronunciation (articulation), voice, fluency, or language formulation.
Language Assessment: Our assessments evaluate receptive (understanding) and expressive (using) language skills. This helps us understand challenges with vocabulary, grammar, comprehension, and following instructions.
Speech Therapy: Our therapy sessions are engaging and fun, designed to help children improve their speech clarity, vocabulary, grammar, sentence structure, and conversational skills. We work on building confidence in expressing themselves verbally.
Language Therapy: We provide targeted interventions to enhance a child's ability to understand spoken and written language and to use language effectively for communication, including answering questions, telling stories, and participating in conversations.
Our approach is child-centered, focusing on building skills in a supportive environment that encourages active participation and positive engagement.

Therapy sessions are tailored to the individual child's needs and goals. Activities are designed to be motivating and play-based where possible. We might work on specific sounds, build vocabulary, practice sentence structure, improve listening comprehension, engage in conversation practice, or work on social communication skills, all within a supportive and encouraging environment.

The duration of therapy varies significantly depending on the child's age, the nature and severity of the difficulties, their motivation, and the goals set with their parents or carers. Some children may show progress within a few months, while others may require longer-term support. Our therapists will provide you with an estimated timeline based on the initial assessment findings.
