Speech Therapy
Communication is one of life’s most important tasks, and for children it facilitates their ability to learn, explore their environment, interact with others, and communicate their wants/needs. Delays in the proper development of speech and language skills can contribute to behavioral, social and educational difficulties. At Milestone Therapy Inc. our Pediatric Speech-language pathologists support children from infancy through adolescence and collaborate with their families and other medical, educational, developmental, and rehabilitation specialists to develop an individualized treatment plan.
Speech-language pathologists provide evaluation and treatment for:
- Articulation / phonological delay (sound errors)
- Auditory processing
- Augmentative and alternative communication
- Autism or related disorders
- Cognitive / language deficits
- Dysarthria / Apraxia of speech (slurring or sound substitution)
- Expressive and/or receptive language delays (using and/or understanding language)
- Fluency / stuttering
- Pragmatics / social skills
- Reading and written language
