Pediatric speech-language therapy, alongside the rest of the team.
Expressive and receptive language. Articulation. Social communication. Delivered in dedicated rooms and in small-group work, so children practice language where they actually need to use it.
Speech-language inside the whole day.
Like OT, speech-language therapy in our program isn't a 45-minute slot in a separate building. The SLP is on the team meeting weekly about your child. What happens in a one-on-one SLP session is informed by what came up in groups, in OT, and at home. What the SLP works on flows back to the rest of the team.
Sessions happen in dedicated SLP rooms and in small, consistent groups, so children practice communication in the settings where they actually need the skill: with peers, with adults, around real activities.
What sessions actually look like.
For younger children, sessions are play-based on the floor, with picture cards and simple toys. For older children, the work is more structured: articulation drills, social-language role-plays, conversation practice. Materials are pitched to the child's stage, not a curriculum.
The rest of the day threads through the SLP's work. Communication is built in real interactions, not just rehearsed in a vacuum.
What we work on.
Across the program, our SLPs cover:
- Expressive and receptive language: what your child can say, and what they can understand
- Articulation and speech sound production
- Social communication: turn-taking, topic maintenance, reading social cues
- Parent coaching in the SLP's frameworks, so the work transfers home
Is this part of what your child needs?
SLP is part of nearly every care plan in our program. The intensity is matched to the child, heavier for children with developmental delays or autism, lighter when language isn't the leading need but social communication still benefits from work.
The first call is a 15-minute conversation.
