Is your child having difficulty learning to read (dyslexia) or write?

Does your child get frustrated when trying to communicate?

Do you feel that your child does not understand?

Our speech/language and literacy (reading) evaluations target the following domains:

• Using Spoken Language (expressive)
• Understanding Spoken Language (receptive)
• Vocabulary, Grammar, and Syntax
• Semantics
• Understanding of Sounds (phonological processing)
• Word Retrieval
• Working Memory (holding and manipulating information in mind)
• Decoding (sounding words out)
• Reading Fluency
• Reading Comprehension
• Metacognition (thinking about thinking; self-awareness and insight; error
recognition)
• Social Pragmatics (understanding and using non-verbal communication and
social language)
• Articulation
• Writing Skills
• Apraxia (difficulty making purposeful sounds)

This type of evaluation can be helpful if you suspect that your child has:

• Aphasia
• Developmental Language Impairment
• Dyslexia
• Reading Disorder
• Writing Disorder
• Communication Disorder/Impairment
• Autism/Asperger’s Disorder/PDD
• Resonance Disorder
• Articulation Disorder
• Fluency Disorder
• Voice Disorder
• Stuttering

The evaluation will diagnose the problem(s), quantify a child’s strengths, and identify the factors that limit a child’s success. Each limiting factor will have one or more treatment recommendations, such as:

• Speech/Language Therapy
• Reading Programs (e.g. Wilson Reading System, Orton-Gillingham,
RAVE-O, Lindamood Bell, Project Read)
• Participation in a school IEP (Individualized Education Program) or 504
Accommodation Plan (to help obtain school-based services and
accommodations)
