What is Language Therapy?

Language disorders affect your ability to comprehend what others say or to express your ideas clearly. This may involve trouble finding the right words, forming complete sentences, or following conversations. Our SLPs use evidence-based approaches to help strengthen expressive and receptive language skills, making everyday communication more successful and less frustrating.

What conditions could benefit from this treatment?

  • Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) Children have difficulty with language skills not explained by hearing loss, autism, or cognitive delay.
  • Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Our therapists can help with understanding figurative language, sarcasm, or indirect requests. They can also help with expression; forming sentences, maintaining conversation, or narrating events.

  • Hearing Loss

Without clear access to sound, children and adults may struggle to understand spoken language (receptive) or develop vocabulary and grammar (expressive). Our therapists focus on building communication with or without hearing aids/cochlear implants.

  • Aphasia (Post-Stroke or Brain Injury)

Damage to brain language centers can affect Receptive language (difficulty understanding others) or Expressive language (difficulty speaking or forming coherent sentences)

  • Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

May affect comprehension of spoken/written language or ability to express thoughts clearly. Therapy addresses both functional language and higher-level thinking skills

  • Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities

Conditions like Down syndrome, Fragile X syndrome, and others often include delays in expressive and/or receptive language development. Speech Therapy helps build functional language skills tailored to individual strengths.

  • Learning Disabilities

Speech therapy can help with trouble following directions and understanding what is read or heard. Therapy can work to improve organizing thoughts, writing, or retelling stories.

  • Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA)

A neurodegenerative condition causing a gradual loss of language abilities. Therapy focuses on preserving function and using compensatory strategies

  • Selective Mutism or Anxiety-Based Communication Disorders

Expressive language is present but not used in specific situations due to anxiety. Therapy helps build confidence and social communication in low-stress settings.
