Teletherapy Effectiveness

Teletherapy is one of the most exciting, innovative ways for your child to receive speech therapy services. You can attend sessions from anywhere and on any device. From your living room floor to your car, morning, noon, or night, your child can benefit from working with a highly qualified Speech Pathologist whether through structured activities, play, or your daily routines.

 

Speech and Language Holiday Ideas-The holidays are typically known for being a fun and memorable time for children and their families but it can also be a time that routines change with school days and vacations, increased time with extended family, and traveling which can be stressful for children and parents.

       

For Fun Fall Speech Activities

What a fun time of year as we head into the holiday season. There are so many fun ways we can incorporate speech and language goals into our everyday outings. With all of the leaves changing color and starting to fall it’s a great opportunity to practice different sounds, expand vocabulary and practice following directions and story retell.
