Baby talk – it was the cutest thing…
“Like” sounds like “Wike” or “Fish” sounds like “Pish.”
“Right” sounds like “White” or “Cold” sounds like “Told.”
At first, your child’s speech seemed cute, but then you started noticing that most of the other kids that age didn’t still talk that way.
You also realize that other people still have difficulty understanding your child when he or she talks.
But now, it’s a problem.
Gradually, what once was cute has become concerning. You’ve begun to worry about the future.
Will the teachers be able to understand her in class?
Will he start to become self-conscious and start to withdraw socially?
Will other children start to tease her because of her speech?
Will a speech disorder impact his ability to read and sound out words properly?
You don’t have to find all the answers on your own.
I can help your child tackle those problematic sounds.
Together, we’ll teach your child the correct pronunciation of the target sounds.
I approach therapy in a systematic way that will allow your child to experience success and build confidence in their articulation skills.
As we continue our work together, I’ll also share strategies and activities with you that you can use to help improve your child’s articulation while practicing between sessions.
Music to your ears.
Together, we can meet these challenges head on.
