Speech Therapy
​​At Moving Mountains, we are dedicated to helping individuals of all ages improve their communication skills through comprehensive speech-language therapy. Whether your child is struggling with speech delays, articulation issues, or language development, our expert therapists provide personalized care to help them overcome challenges and reach their full potential.
​
What is Speech-Language Therapy?
Speech-language therapy is a specialized service that addresses a wide range of communication disorders. This therapy helps individuals develop essential skills for effective communication, including speaking clearly, understanding and using language, and improving social communication abilities. Speech-language therapists, also known as speech-language pathologists (SLPs), are trained to assess, diagnose, and treat speech, language, and communication issues.
​
Who Can Benefit from Speech-Language Therapy?
Speech-language therapy is beneficial for individuals who experience difficulties in any of the following areas:
-
Speech Delays and Disorders: Challenges in producing sounds correctly, such as articulation disorders, phonological disorders, or childhood apraxia of speech.
-
Language Delays and Disorders: Difficulty understanding others (receptive language) or expressing thoughts and ideas (expressive language).
-
Social Communication: Problems with using language in social situations, including understanding social cues, taking turns in conversation, or maintaining eye contact.
-
Stuttering: Repeating sounds, syllables, or words, or prolonged sounds that disrupt the flow of speech.
​
What to Expect in Speech-Language Therapy Sessions
​
Personalized Therapy Plan: Based on the evaluation, we create a tailored therapy plan that targets the specific needs of the individual. This plan includes measurable goals and outlines the strategies and activities that will be used to achieve these goals.
Interactive and Engaging Sessions: Our therapy sessions are designed to be interactive and fun, especially for children. We use a variety of techniques, including play-based activities, visual aids, and technology, to keep sessions engaging and effective.
Articulation and Phonological Therapy: For individuals with speech sound disorders, we focus on improving articulation and phonological skills. This may involve practicing specific sounds, learning how to position the tongue and lips, or working on patterns of sound errors.
Language Development: We work on building both receptive and expressive language skills. This includes expanding vocabulary, improving sentence structure, and enhancing the ability to understand and follow directions.
Social Communication Skills: For those struggling with social communication, we teach strategies for engaging in conversation, understanding nonverbal cues, and developing appropriate social interactions. These skills are crucial for building relationships and interacting effectively with others.
Stuttering and Fluency Therapy: Our SLP helps individuals who stutter by teaching techniques to improve speech fluency, manage anxiety related to speaking, and build confidence in communication.
Ongoing Progress Monitoring: We continuously monitor progress to ensure that therapy is effective and goals are being met. Regular updates are provided to families, and therapy plans are adjusted as needed to ensure continued success.
