Benefits of Our Services

For young children suffering from communication difficulties, the benefits of pediatric therapy cannot be overstated. Here are just a few ways our pediatric speech therapy services can help your child thrive:
  • Improve Verbal Communication
      • Through aided and unaided communication techniques, your child will learn to speak and communicate ideas in a variety of ways. Pediatric speech therapy, at the end of the day, is about language. We’ll help your child master the verbal language skills that will last a lifetime.
  • Boost Social Skills
      • Good social skills are essential to living a successful life. Our therapeutic services employ modeling, role-playing, and other techniques to help your child practice social skills and learn to adapt to dynamic social situations.
Emerald City Therapies - Services
  • Enhance Reading and Writing
      • Without reading skills, children cannot learn. Without writing skills, children cannot communicate. That’s why our therapy services focus on reading, writing, and literacy skills in addition to speech.
  • Practice Nonverbal Communication
      • Did you know that over half of face-to-face human communication is non-verbal? Our therapy services will help your child develop ‘total’ communication skills whereby body and voice work in tandem to express ideas effectively.

Pediatric Speech & Language Therapy

What is speech therapy? Speech therapy refers to the diagnosis and treatment of speech disorders and other communication problems.

If your child has difficulty producing certain sounds, articulating words and phrases, or engaging in conversations with others, they may benefit from speech therapy.

Through our creative and personalized speech and language therapy services, we serve our communities, one child, at a time!

Pediatric Speech & Language Therapy

Our speech and language therapy services include:

We begin by conducting a comprehensive evaluation of your child’s individual speech therapy needs.

Based on the evaluation, our speech therapists and speech-language pathologists devise a strategy to teach concrete, meaningful speech, and language skills.

What Clients Say About Us

Pediatric Occupational Therapy

Pediatric Occupational Therapy

Pediatric occupational therapy is about helping children learn independence while developing their sensory motor skills, fine motor skills, and visual motor skills.

Occupational therapy helps children learn and practice basic tasks through the therapeutic use of daily activities (occupations).

Our pediatric occupational therapy services will provide your child with the motor skills and confidence they need to function and socialize with others effectively.
