Overview
The Speech Space is a pediatric speech and occupational therapy practice that provides individually tailored services to young children. We renovated and remodeled our office specifically for the children we work with. Our office is filled with a vast variety of toys and games which have been curated to motivate, engage and grow each child’s skills. Our sensory gym has been thoughtfully designed for children with sensory, self regulation, attention, fine motor, and motor planning needs. We focus on helping children explore their potential through play-based therapy in a fun and supportive environment. We believe children learn best when they are engaged and excited. Through a balance of child and adult directed activities, we seek to maximize a child’s experience and growth in each session. Additionally, we recognize each child is unique and we are flexible in designing our sessions and treatment plans specifically for each individual child! Speech Therapy Specialities: Expressive & Receptive Language, Articulation, Oral Motor Weakness, Motor Planning, Feeding Difficulties, Disfluencies, and Social Skills. Occupational Therapy Specialities: Self Regulation, Attention Skills, Sensory Processing, Fine Motor, Sensory-Based Feeding, Primitive Reflex Integration, and Handwriting.
