Our Speech-Language Pathologists can provide support in the following areas:
Articulation
Articulation refers to how your child says individual speech sounds. Many children will have difficulty pronouncing some words or specific sounds as they grow up. You can reference this chart to see what is age-appropriate for your child's articulation.
Literacy
Literacy is the ability to read and write. At Beyond Speech Therapy we use a phonics based approach to literacy learning! Direct literacy support for children may include phonemic (letter) awareness, decoding strategies and more. Check out our weekly literacy group here!
Language
Receptive Language is what we understand and Expressive Language is what we say. Most children begin to talk around 1 year but some may take a little longer, this is called Late Language Emergence (LLE). We use a combination of play-based therapy and family coaching to provide early intervention to provide support to children experiencing LLE.
Social Communication
Social Communication allows individuals to comfortably interact/play/share and engage with each other on a day-to-day basis. Social communication can be addressed with your Speech Pathologist using through play-based therapy!
Cognitive communication
Cognitive Communication is directly supported by several complex processes including attention, memory and problem solving. These skills impact your child's ability to engage in social settings and communicate efficiently/effectively.
Fluency
Fluency is how speech flows. Stuttering is a disruption in the continuous flow of speech that may consist of sound repetitions, word repetitions and extended pauses in speech.
Feeding & Picky Eating
Some children struggle with new foods and may stick to a very restricted diet due to food aversions. Our Speech Therapists offer feeding strategies and a graded approach to trying new foods that will allow your child to feel both comfortable and empowered at mealtimes.
Augmentative & alternative
communication
Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) refers to non-verbal communication. This can be "low-tech" using paper materials and pointing or "high-tech" using a device such as an iPad.
