  • Develop individualized diagnostic reports outlining the assessment results and recommendations for treatment.

Treatment and Intervention :

Design and implement individualized treatment plans tailored to the specific needs of each client.

  • Provide therapy for a range of speech and language disorders, including but not limited to speech delays, aphasia, dysphagia (swallowing difficulties), stuttering, voice disorders, and communication disorders resulting from neurological or developmental conditions.
  • Work with clients on improving articulation, phonology, fluency, receptive and expressive language, social communication, and voice.

  • Provide guidance and support to family members, caregivers, or school staff on ways to reinforce therapy goals in everyday interactions and environments.

    • Progress Monitoring and Documentation :

    Regularly monitor and track client progress toward therapy goals and make adjustments to treatment plans as needed.

  • Prepare detailed reports for families, educational teams, or healthcare providers, ensuring clarity and accuracy in communication.

    • Education and Prevention :

    Educate clients, caregivers, and the community on speech and language development, as well as prevention of communication disorders.

  • Provide training and workshops for staff or parents on how to support speech and language development in children or adults.
  • Develop and implement prevention strategies for individuals at risk of developing speech and language issues.

    • Research and Continuing Education :

    Stay current on the latest research, techniques, and best practices in speech-language pathology.

  • Engage in continuing education and professional development activities to maintain licensure and enhance clinical skills.
  • Evaluate new tools and therapies that may benefit clients.
