Speech & Language Pathology
Pediatric speech and language pathologists (SLP's) are here to support children in communicating, connecting, and participating in their everyday lives—at home, in childcare or school, and in their community.
An SLP completes comprehensive, play-based assessments to understand how a child communicates and processes language.
Therapy sessions are designed around each child’s interests and developmental profile.
