Helpful Information

If your child has not had an evaluation within the past six months, we’ll start by scheduling one. After the evaluation, we’ll discuss the results, determine whether therapy is recommended, and plan next steps. If your child has already had a speech-language evaluation in the last six months, we can use that information and get you scheduled to begin direct therapy right away during your consultation call.

Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS) is a motor speech disorder. It means a child knows what they want to say, but their brain has difficulty planning and coordinating the movements of the lips, tongue, jaw, and voice needed to say the words clearly. Because CAS affects motor planning, it needs a different type of therapy than a speech delay. Identifying CAS early helps ensure a child receives the right support, reducing frustration and supporting overall communication.
