Practice Information

Janet Harrod Carr specializes in the evaluation and treatment of children and adolescents with language-learning disorders affecting listening, speaking, reading, writing, and spelling. Additionally, she specializes in the evaluation and treatment of children with speech sound disorders, apraxia, and dysarthria. She has specialized training for trestment of children and adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorders/Asperger's Syndrome. Socio-emotional communication skills are addressed through direct training in individual and group activities as well as use of social stories to improve the child's understanding of what to do and say.

Treatment is designed to improve learning strategies, develop metacognative skills, develop listening comprehension/auditory processing and verbal expression, improve intelligibility of speech, develop reading fluency and reading comprehension skills and improve written expression and spelling.

Therapy is conducted in a naturalistic environment to accomplish structured and individualized treatment goals identified during the evaluation and treatment process. Family input and participation is critical to the success of the child and is enhanced through education, training and guided practice. Use of technology (IPads, Touch Screen Computers, Low-Tech Assistive Technology, etc.) is incorporated whenever possible.

Ms. Carr believes that management of sensory/motor processing challenges is a critical underpinning to treatment and works collaboratively with physical and occupational therapists to ensure that the child's motor and sensory needs are addressed/accomodated during the treatment process. She also works collaboratively with psychologists, pediatricians and neurodevelopmental professionals to ensure that emotional and physical issues are addressed concurrently to treatment.
