Chicago Speech Therapy
Speech Therapy for Reading, Writing, Speaking, and Listening
Mindful Speech offers speech-language therapy focusing on language, literacy, and executive functioning in Chicago. At Mindful Speech, we help children, teens, and adults to speak, understand, read, and write with more ease and less dread. Like most parents, you probably want your child to be happy, have friends, and enjoy their life. But difficulties seem to be standing in their way. When parents reach out to me they say that their child: “says sentences don’t make sense” “has trouble decoding words” “has to read things more than once to get the meaning” “has difficulty finding the right words for what she means” “can’t read and understand long sentences and long words" ”has trouble imagining what he reads” “has difficulty being concise in their essays” Sound familiar? You’ve come to the right place. I can help you and your child. Is your child getting the support they need? You might worry that your child is not going to be able to keep up with their friends, that your teenager won’t be able to keep up with work in college without you around, or that your child won’t “reach their potential.” Your child might even be getting help at school but you are fretting that they aren’t getting the one-on-one attention they deserve. My clients used to struggle like your children. Despite being motivated, creative, and a joy to be around, life is hard for them. When they first come in, students often take hours and hours to write essays and after all that work, the essays still don’t make sense. My younger clients are struggling to keep up with their peers because reading hasn’t clicked and they are having difficulty moving beyond slowly reading one word at a time. Your child deserves to feel confident when telling a story to friends, excited to share their opinion in class, and ready to challenge themselves by using a complex sentence. Learning the basics (and beyond!) of reading is possible. Using grammatically correct sentences is not out of your child’s reach. If you want your child to gain confidence in their communication skills, I’d love to help them get there. It’s my passion to think about all things language (reading, writing, listening, speaking, telling stories). This is what I love to do so it would be my pleasure to help your family!
