What can Speech and Language Therapy Help With?

Speech & Language therapy is focussed on supporting children with their speech, language and communication development. This includes help with the following skills:

• • Listening and understanding
  • Using speech and language to communicate information
  • Making and maintaining friendships with other children

We can work with the following difficulties:

• • Speech sound difficulties
  • Language difficulties such as late first words, late joining words together, delayed use of grammar, delayed understanding of language
  • disordered social communication skills and/or a diagnosis of Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

We can work directly with children, or with parents/carers to give them the skills and strategies to support their child’s communication in everyday situations.
