Nothing is better than hearing a child say their first word or a loved one tell you they love you again after a stroke!
Communication, whether verbal or nonverbal, is crucial to developing relationships, expressing needs, and sharing thoughts.
We connect hearts and minds through effective interventions.
We provide a full spectrum of speech-language therapy services to children and adults of all ages and abilities.
Making connections is the key to communication, learning, relationships, and progress. Helping individuals achieve their goals is not only our job, but also our passion.
We love helping children grow toward their ultimate potential through play, direct intervention, and meaningful activities that help them connect with the most important people in their lives.
Our focus is helping our clients become aware of their inner strengths. With hard work and guidance, all children can attain great achievements.
We offer intervention for language, literacy, and reading, as well as enrichment programs for creative and expository writing.
We provide dynamic assessment, intervention, and support services designed to meet the unique needs of every individual we serve.
We use evidence-based intervention approaches to positively impact the whole family living with someone with a neurocognitive disorder such as Mild Cognitive Impairment or Dementia, or those living with Aphasia after a stroke.
Caregiver Training and family education focus on strategies to enhance activities of daily living and interactions with loved ones.
We are a small private practice in Palm Beach Gardens. We tailor therapy to the unique needs of each child we serve. We use a child-led, patient-centered approach to therapy and a Montessori style atmosphere to entice children to engage with toys and activities that will help them reach their goals. Research demonstrates that play is a crucial part of learning and having fun increases carryover of skills.
We believe that meaningful communication stems from the internal desire to communicate and engage with others. Developing connections is the key to communication. We encourage family members to participate in therapy to learn techniques to use outside of therapy, promoting the use of new skills with a variety of communication partners across all environments. Connected families are healthy families with happy hearts!
Screening, Consultation, Assessment, Intervention and Parent Training in:
A tongue thrust is an immature or disordered swallowing pattern in which the tongue protrudes through the anterior incisors during swallowing, speech production and while the tongue is at rest in the mouth. This often leads to malocclusion or misalignment of the teeth and subsequent articulation disorders, including lisping.
Correcting a tongue thrust requires collaboration between the dentist or orthodontist and the speech-language pathologist who is specially trained in resolving this condition.
Treatment of swallowing disorders and habitual tongue thrusting involves the implementation of orofacial myofunctional therapy to target the muscles of the tongue, face, cheeks and lips paired with specialized speech therapy techniques to improve speech sound production. These techniques play a crucial role in orthodontic treatment as well, making the results long-lasting and easier to achieve. Unresolved tongue thrusting, will impede the ability of braces to align the teeth properly.
