Early Childhood
Early Childhood Stuttering Therapy
The onset of stuttering can be variable. For some children onset is sudden leaving caregivers feeling worried and stressed. Understanding the early stages of stuttering and management options can be a great comfort to caregivers and I’m here to help.
At Pathways Forward, caregivers will be supported in gaining awareness of relevant variables to their child’s fluency difficulties and develop skills to support their child’s communication in the home and community. With your permission, I will be happy to collaborate with your child’s classroom teachers to support progress in the educational environment.
Multi-Factored Evaluation
Stuttering and other fluency disorders are complex. It is critical that therapy begins with a comprehensive, multi-factored evaluation. This allows therapy to be tailored to meet the unique needs of you or your child. The evaluation process provides for appropriate diagnosis, understanding of relevant contributing factors, and collaboration in goal setting based on client and family preferences.
In addition, if you or your child have co-occurring speech and language difficulties those can be addressed in the evaluation and therapy as well.
If you have had a recent evaluation, it may be accepted in full or part in place of the multi-factored evaluation.
