Speech with Sarah specializes in pediatric speech therapy, so we will talk more about that. 

Speech therapy  can be provided to any child with a communication delay. What does that mean? 

There are many types of communication disruptions that speech therapists treat. Some examples are 

• Language delays, such as late talkers or difficulties understanding language

• Swallowing disorders, especially in infants

• Stuttering

• Articulation (pronunciation) delays

• Apraxia, or difficulty with the motor sequencing needed to speak clearly

• Voice disorders, such as harsh or gravelly voice

• Muscle weakness in the mouth, tongue, jaw, etc. (dysarthria)

• Children who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing
