Child SmilingEvaluation of speech and language skills - Your child will meet with one of our licensed Speech-Language Pathologists in an individual setting. The Speech-Language Pathologist will administer a comprehensive assessment which may include standardized testing, observation, parent interview, play-based assessment or rating scales. The assessment will be tailored to your concerns, for example, speech, language, fluency or social skills. Results of this assessment will be shared with the parent and any other team members to determine a treatment plan. If your child has been evaluated at a different location within the past year, the results of this evaluation will be considered.
