Speech therapy for children
For your child, speech therapy may take place one-on-one, over teletherapy or may involve family members depending on the speech disorder. Speech therapy exercises and activities vary depending on your child’s disorder, age, and needs.
During speech therapy for children, the SLP may:
Engage in play-based therapy to make learning relevant, meaningful, and fun for your child
Embed your child's individualized goals into playful activities and interactions
Use skilled techniques to teach the child how to make certain sounds and words
Provide coaching and homework for the parent or caregiver on how to promote therapy targets at home
