Comprehensive
Evaluations
Personalized Therapy
Programs
Goals are written for each child on an individual basis because we know that no two children are alike.
Family
Centered
We believe family involvement is essential to a child’s overall generalization of speech and language skills from a structured setting in the home to their everyday life.
Visual Progress
Reports
We feel it is important that you can see your child’s progress as well as experience it; therefore, we provide graphed progress reports that you can check in on at any time.
Hanen Program for Parents – It Takes Two to Talk
The It Takes Two to Talk Program is an 8-week program designed specifically for parents of young children (birth to 5 years of age) who have been identified as having a language delay.

- Adjust everyday routines to help your child take turns and keep interactions going
- Follow your child’s lead to build his confidence and encourage him to communicate
- Add language to interactions with your child to help him understand language and then use it when he is ready
- Tweak the way you play and read books with your child to help him learn language
- Change the way you speak to your child so that he’ll understand and learn new words
