How we work with you.

You will leave your first appointment with an evidenced-based, individualized treatment plan.

 

SPEECH-language evaluation

Language expression, comprehension, reading and writing are the four pillars of a speech-language evaluation. Family/caregiver education is included in the comprehensive treatment plan.

motor speech evaluation

Assessments examine strength, range of motion, and coordination of speech production structures, and fluency disruptions.

cognitive evaluation

Comprehensive assessments include memory, attention, problem solving, executive functioning, and processing speed. Compensatory strategies are practiced in therapy.

Dysphagia (Swallowing)

Evaluations of swallow function, diet recommendations, and adaptive strategies are addressed for those with short and long-term swallowing difficulty. Additionally, assessment of voice disorders is available.
