WELCOME to
Welcome to Speech Solutions, where it is our mission to make a positive difference in the lives of those with communication disorders. We provide affordable, professional, and highly effective research-based therapy services to children, teens, and adults. We aim to make effective communication accessible, fostering confidence with meaningful communication so that clients can thrive in every aspect of their daily lives. We have adopted a collaborative approach because we believe community and family are at the heart of building successful and long-lasting changes.
At Speech Solutions, we specialize in thorough assessments to determine the exact nature of the speech-sound disorder. We determine how and why a client is having difficulty producing certain sounds. From there, we create goals and resolve the articulation errors through meaningful and individualized therapy focused on:
-
Teaching correct placement for sounds
-
Fixing errors that impact intelligibility
-
Parent coaching and training to carryover skills into the home
-
Building confidence to freely express yourself
For children and adults with language disorders, understanding what people say, interpreting the message, and then formulating a correct response can be challenging. We get to the heart of each client's challenges and provide individualized therapy to increase expressive and receptive language skills for functioning at home and across social, academic, and professional environments. We provide treatment to increase success for:
-
Language comprehension skills
-
Combining words together in meaningful ways
-
Expanding grammatical knowledge
-
Developing a more extensive and more descriptive vocabulary
-
Following directions and answering questions
Navigating the social world can be overwhelming, especially for kids and adults with social and pragmatic disorders. Understanding emotions, interpreting and using humor, making friends, and responding appropriately in all social situations are significant parts of our daily communication skills. We help clients:
-
Develop skills to navigate their social world
-
Learn to play games and build turn-taking skills
-
Manage conflicts and promote resolutions
-
Build social-emotional awareness and knowledge
-
Understand non-verbal communication and social cues
-
Build meaningful relationships
Executive functioning is the ability to plan, organize, remember, and execute tasks. Throughout the day, executive functioning skills are necessary for everything we do, especially at work and school. For many, staying organized in a busy environment is challenging. Successfully finishing a task and being productive can be even more daunting. We help our clients learn how to:
-
Attend to tasks
-
Organize information
-
Recall and strengthen memory skills
-
Transition between tasks
-
Complete projects
