SPEECH AND LANGUAGE

Connections Speech and Language serves children from birth through age 21, focusing on improving their ability to communicate their needs by providing comprehensive evaluations of speech and language skills and ongoing specialized treatment plans. Our SLP therapists value learning and having fun, and take on a fun filled, child-centered and humor based therapy approach with family involvement highly encouraged. 

​

We treat a wide range of disabilities including speech/language impairment, articulation, developmental delays/disabilities, autism, genetic syndromes, hearing loss, sensory integration, reading/language processing, and more.
