comprehensive evaluations

Most families come to us with the same question. Is this something to worry about, or is my child just taking their time? An evaluation answers that.

Our evaluations are relaxed and play based, not a test your child can fail. We spend time getting to know your child, watching how they communicate or eat naturally, and using formal measures where they add useful information. You are part of the whole process, because you know things about your child that no assessment will catch.

speech and language therapy

One on one sessions for kids working on articulation, expressive and receptive language, and early communication. We build sessions around what your child is already interested in, because that is when learning actually sticks.

Whether your child is searching for first words, working to be understood by people outside the family, or learning how to hold a conversation with a friend, we meet them at their level and build from there. Progress happens through play, not drills, and parents are part of every step.

child eating

FEEDING THERAPY

Mealtimes should not be the hardest part of the day. We support kids who accept only a short list of foods, who struggle with the skills eating requires, or who are not yet taking food by mouth at all.

Our approach is sensory informed and child led, which means no pressure, no bribing, and no forcing bites. Kids build comfort with new foods at their own pace, and families leave with real strategies for home. The goal is steady nutrition, calmer meals, and a child who can join the table.

Augmentative & Alternative Communication (AAC)

Some kids communicate with words. Some communicate with a device, a board, or signs. All of it is real communication, and all of it deserves support.

We provide AAC evaluations, device and system trials, and ongoing therapy to build vocabulary and independence. We also train parents, caregivers, and teachers, because a communication system only works if it works everywhere. And no, giving your child a device will not stop them from talking. It usually opens the door wider.

early intervention

The earliest years are full of opportunity. We support babies and toddlers with developmental delays through play, routines, and coaching that fit into the day you already have.

Sessions happen at home or at daycare, wherever your little one is most comfortable, and they look like ordinary moments. Snack time, diaper changes, and playing on the floor all become chances to build communication. You do not have to wait and see. If something feels off, we would rather take a look now than a year from now.

parent coaching

Your child spends 45 minutes a week in therapy and the rest of the week with you. That math is why we build parent coaching into every session instead of tacking it on at the end.

Coaching is not a lecture and it is not homework. It looks like us showing you what we just did and why it worked, then handing the moment back to you while we cheer you on. Most parents are surprised by how much they were already doing right. Usually one small shift changes everything.
