Should we wait and see if my child catches up?
Some children do catch up on their own, but many don't. An early assessment does no harm, and if all is well you will know sooner.
About this therapy
What it is.
Speech and language therapy helps with how a child understands words, puts them together and says them clearly. It covers late talking, unclear speech, stammering, and difficulty following instructions or joining a conversation.
Sessions are built around play, because children learn language best when they are enjoying themselves. You also go home with simple things to try, since most language is learned between sessions, not in them.
In a session

Families ask
Good questions.
Do you check hearing as well?
Often, yes. We can test hearing in the clinic, which rules out one of the most common causes of speech delay.
Do you see adults?
Yes, for speech and language difficulties after a stroke or brain injury, through adult neuro-communication therapy.
Under the same roof
