TALK provides comprehensive speech and language therapy for children. We offer assessments and intensive programs for the treatment of all speech, voice, language, fluency, feeding, social and developmental delays and disorders. Our goal is to make speech therapy an effective and rewarding experience for children and their families. We are experts in all areas of communication disorders and strive to be an effective and approachable resource for parents and their children. We understand that no two children are alike, and we tailor our treatment plans to each individual child and family. We believe your child learns best in a playful, but structured setting with plenty of positive reinforcement. Therefore, TALK offers an inviting, child-friendly environment in which your child will grow and learn. We also encourage our parents to observe and learn from their child’s treatment sessions, ask questions whenever they arise, and take home mastered skills for generalization in the home and school environments. TALK supports and empowers parents and caregivers through parent training programs, relevant education sessions, and individualized home programs. These programs are designed to teach parents how to be their child’s best language facilitator and to give them language-enhancing strategies that they can use in everyday interactions with their child. At TALK, a child’s communication needs are the guiding force behind evaluation and treatment. A “whole child” approach is utilized so that communication needs are being met in every situation which your child encounters. It is our priority to work with your child’s teacher, doctor and other therapists, creating the best opportunity for growth and success.
