Speech sound disorders involve difficulties with producing or using sounds correctly, affecting speech clarity. These issues can be addressed with speech therapy to improve communication skills.
Voice disorders affect the quality, pitch, or volume of a person’s voice, making it sound strained, hoarse, or breathy. Speech therapy can help diagnose and treat these issues to restore healthy voice function.
Tongue thrust is a swallowing pattern where the tongue pushes against or between the teeth. This can affect speech and dental development. Speech therapy can help correct tongue thrust and improve swallowing patterns.
Language delays involve difficulty with understanding or using language compared to typical development. Children with language delays often have difficulty expressing themselves, following directions, and/or understanding others. Speech therapy can help improve language skills and communication abilities.
Social communication therapy can be helpful for children with autism, ADHD, and other language disorders. It can also be helpful for bilingual children. It addresses difficulties using language (both verbal and non-verbal) in social contexts, such as understanding social cues or taking turns in conversation. Speech therapy can help improve these skills and teach AAC when needed for better social interactions.
Swallowing disorders, or dysphagia, involve difficulty chewing or swallowing food and liquids. Speech therapy can help improve swallowing safety and function.
Apraxia of speech is a motor speech disorder where the brain struggles to plan and coordinate the muscle movements needed for speaking, leading to inconsistent speech errors and difficulty with pronunciation. Speech therapy focuses on improving speech clarity by helping individuals practice and refine their ability to produce sounds and sequences of sounds accurately.
Stuttering is a speech disorder that disrupts the flow of speech, causing repetitions, prolonged sounds, or involuntary pauses. It can vary in severity and may be influenced by stress or excitement.
