Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS) is a complex motor speech disorder characterized by difficulties in planning and coordinating the precise movements necessary for speech. Children with CAS often exhibit inconsistent speech sound production, challenges with articulation, and significant difficulties with speech clarity and fluency. This disorder can make it hard for children to express themselves effectively, which can impact their social interactions and overall development.
Our approach to treating CAS involves a comprehensive assessment to understand the specific speech planning and coordination challenges your child faces. Based on this evaluation, we create a personalized therapy plan designed to enhance your child’s ability to plan and execute the movements required for clear and effective speech. Therapy may include activities to improve motor planning, articulation exercises, and interactive practice to build consistency in speech production.
We employ a range of evidence-based techniques and engaging activities tailored to your child’s developmental level and interests. Our therapy sessions are designed to be both fun and functional, encouraging active participation and progress. By focusing on improving motor planning and speech production skills, we aim to help your child achieve clearer speech, increased communication confidence, and enhanced overall language development. Our dedicated team is committed to providing the support and guidance needed to help your child thrive and reach their full communicative potential.
