EVALUATIONS
Our services begin with an evaluation to develop a comprehensive picture of your child's skills, strengths, and challenges. Evaluations consist of parent interviews, a speech-language sample, observation of parent-child interactions, standardized assessments, and play-based activities with the therapist.
