Evaluations for Speech-Language & Feeding Therapy

We offer speech-language screenings to help identify potential communication challenges in young children. By screening early, we can determine whether your child will need further evaluation and treatment.

During an evaluation, a speech pathologist can identify the root cause of a child’s speech or language problem. They can also identify your child’s strengths and weaknesses, diagnose feeding and speech-language disorders, and map out an effective treatment plan going forward.

We also offer physical therapy, occupational therapy, and a variety of treatment options in addition to speech and feeding therapy.

Feeding Therapy

Feeding therapy progresses a patient’s ability to eat foods of multiple textures and tastes. Treatment helps broaden the spectrum of foods that a child can eat and educates them on how to eat the food. A feeding therapist will also work on oral exercises with your child to strengthen and develop their facial muscles, lips, tongue, and jaw.
