Language Therapy

My understanding of how to treat spoken language has grown and changed over the years, and I have now come to an understanding of the root causes of language disorders. When children struggle to express themselves verbally, there are generally one or two underlying causes. Once those underlying causes are treated, they make remarkable progress. One primary cause is motor based, and results in so many speech errors that they are hard to understand and their language is also affected. Another primary cause is based in how they process and remember the language they hear. When their processing is compromised, language output is also compromised. It’s similar to the adage “muddy in muddy out.”  I have developed a treatment program for assessing and treating the root causes that delivers solid results.
