Services
Speech Therapy
Speech and language therapy (ST) offers assessment, treatment, and support
for children facing challenges in speech, language, voice, social skills,
and communication. ST also equips families with knowledge and guidance
to assist their child in achieving speech and language milestones.
Occupational therapy (OT) provides treatment and assistance for children
experiencing physical, sensory, cognitive, or visual difficulties. Our
OTs aid children in reaching their developmental milestones while also
educating parents for their child's overall success.
Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) encompasses various communication
methods beyond spoken language, allowing individuals to express thoughts,
needs, wants, and ideas. AAC can be temporary or lifelong, tailored to
speech and language requirements.
Myofunctional therapy employs techniques to eliminate harmful habits, normalize
resting tongue, lips, and jaw positions, and retrain muscle patterns,
particularly in cases of tongue thrusting.
