This evaluation assesses your child’s ability to produce speech sounds age-appropriately, and determine if their sound errors are caused by oral motor deficits, a phonological delay, or a neurological issue. We also do evaluations specifically geared to confirm or rule out Childhood Apraxia of Speech.

Our comprehensive evaluation can include receptive and expressive vocabulary skills, receptive and expressive language skills, language processing skills, in addition to articulation, fluency, and social skills.
