Helping Kids Communicate & Connect

SEARHC Pediatric Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) specialize in helping children develop the communication, social and feeding/swallowing skills they need to succeed. Our goal is to help your child express themselves confidently, communicate effectively and build the skills they need to thrive in school, home and social settings.

Who Do We Help?

We work with children who have a variety of diagnoses, including but not limited to:

Speech and Language Delays

Supporting children who may experience difficulty speaking clearly, understanding or using words or forming sentences.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Support with social communication, understanding language, and using words in meaningful ways, honoring each child’s individual way of interacting and connecting.

Down Syndrome and other Genetic Conditions

Supporting speech sound development, expressive and receptive language, and social communication that builds on a child’s strengths.

Apraxia of Speech

Helping children plan and coordinate movements for clear and confident speech.

Stuttering and Fluency Disorders

Building strategies to help with smooth and confident speech.

Hearing Loss and Cochlear Implants

Supporting children who are developing communication skills in the context of hearing challenges.

Feeding and Swallowing Disorders

Promoting safe, comfortable eating and drinking experiences. These appointments are often in collaboration with our occupational team for sensory and other feeding needs.

Developmental delay, genetic conditions

Supporting speech sounds (articulation), expressive/ receptive language development, safety and social communication skills, among other areas tailored to your child.

Our therapy sessions are fun, engaging and designed to meet your child’s individual needs. We use:

Play-Based Learning

Games and activities to make speech and language practice enjoyable.

Individual & Group Therapy

One-on-one sessions or small groups for peer interaction.

Parent Coaching & Home Strategies

Helping you support your child’s progress at home.

Assistive Technology as well as Alternative & Augmentative Communications (AAC) Devices:
