Our Services
We offer comprehensive speech and language assessment and therapy services specifically designed for children living in the Petts Wood, Orpington area. Our services address a wide range of needs:
Speech Sound Disorders: We help children who have difficulty producing specific speech sounds clearly, which can sometimes make their speech hard to understand.
Language Impairments: This includes difficulties with understanding spoken language (receptive language) or expressing thoughts and ideas through spoken language (expressive language). We also support children with limited or delayed vocabulary development.
Stuttering: We provide assessment and therapy for children who experience speech fluency challenges, helping them develop strategies to manage disfluencies and improve their speaking confidence.
Communication Skills for Children with Learning Difficulties: We offer support for children with conditions such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Down Syndrome, or other developmental conditions that can impact communication skills.
Stammering: Similar to stuttering, we address difficulties with the flow of speech.
Our assessment process begins with an initial consultation to understand the child's specific needs and history. Following assessment, we develop a detailed therapy plan tailored to the child's goals and family priorities.
