Care built around
your child.

Who it can support

Children who have difficulty being understood, expressing wants and needs, following directions, or interacting through language may benefit from a speech and language evaluation.

What sessions may involve

Sessions may use play, books, conversation, and meaningful everyday activities to practice communication. Families learn ways to support these skills between visits. When appropriate, sessions include Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) support.

AAC: more ways to communicate

AAC stands for Augmentative and Alternative Communication. It includes gestures, signs, picture boards, communication books, and speech-generating devices or apps that support or provide an alternative to spoken communication.

AAC helps children express needs, make choices, share ideas, and connect with others when speech alone is difficult. It can reduce frustration and support participation in everyday activities.

How AAC pairs with speech therapy

AAC can be used alongside spoken words as part of an individualized speech and language plan. Your child’s speech-language pathologist helps identify suitable tools and supports your family in using them during play and daily routines. AAC does not prevent speech development and may support speech and language growth.

Who it can support

Families with concerns about milestones or the way their child plays, learns, communicates, or moves can reach out to discuss an evaluation and available support.

What sessions may involve

Specialists work with children and caregivers through developmentally appropriate play and activities. Goals are personalized, and families practice ways to support learning within familiar routines such as playtime, meals, and getting ready for the day.

Who it can support

This support may be helpful when transitions, emotional regulation, or daily activities are challenging and caregivers want individualized guidance.

What sessions may involve

Caregivers receive coaching and direct consultation with a BCBA. Together, families and their provider identify priorities, practice strategies, and adjust the approach as needs change. The emphasis is on giving families practical tools they can use across daily settings.

Who it can support

Families may seek support when a child eats a very limited range of foods, has difficulty progressing to new textures, or regularly struggles during meals. Feeding therapy can also support children with G-tube dependence and/or modified diets.

What sessions may involve

Therapy is individualized and may focus on feeding skills, comfort with foods, and caregiver strategies. Goals take your child’s development and medical needs into account. When needed, care is coordinated with other professionals to address feeding and swallowing concerns.
