Speech Therapy

TCTCI believes that effective treatment for individuals with developmental and learning differences begins with focusing on the whole person. This starts with recognizing each person’s unique strengths, challenges, and potential and bringing together a collaborative team to foster growth, independence, and meaningful progress across all areas of life. One of the key partners in this journey is working with a Speech Therapist. Speech therapy for pediatrics focuses on helping children develop the skills needed for effective communication. Strong communication skills are fundamental to social interaction and forming meaningful relationships. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) play a crucial role in helping individuals overcome barriers related to speech, language, and feeding. Speech Therapy is a vital component of our collaborative care approach.

At TCTCI our speech therapy model in unique in that we utilize movement and sensory activities to support regulation, attention, and focus which are critical components in learning speech. Our speech therapists can utilize the big sensory gym to engage multi-sensory learning that reinforces language. Movement-based sensory play (like dancing, clapping games, or action songs) encourages social interaction and imitation, also foundational for language learning. Our speech therapist also utilize individual treatment rooms to target more focused speech interventions that require attention and focus. Our therapists use engaging activities to create natural opportunities for practicing speech sounds, vocabulary, and communication skills, while also targeting interventions that support the development of communication, language comprehension and expression, articulation, feeding, and oral-motor planning..

Our team of Speech-Language Pathologists offer a full range of diagnostic speech and language services and individual therapy sessions are available for infants at 6 months through childhood to adolescents/young adults up to age 21.  Our therapists are passionate about helping children and their families reach their communication goals through fun, child-led therapy sessions. We believe in working with the child and parent to promote carry-over in the home and community.
