Frequently Asked Questions

Each individual with hearing loss experiences unique challenges and concerns. Here are several questions our team frequently receives, along with our expert answers.

  • How do I know if my child needs Speech Therapy?

    If you have a concern regarding your child's communication skills, the first step is to contact a Speech Language Therapist. The need for speech therapy depends on many factors. Speech and language problems are not uncommon in children. Kids progress and develop at different rates. If you think your child or loved one is not communicating appropriate to their age, its best to get them assessed. After the assessment session the Speech Language Therapist will counsel you regarding the need for Speech Therapy.

  • What are the causes of speech and language disorders?

    Some common causes may include hearing loss, mental retardation or altered development of the brain before birth, autism, and cerebral palsy. Many language disorders occur without an identifiable cause.

  • How are parents involved in the process of Speech Language Assessment and Therapy?

    During the evaluation process, we obtain developmental history information via a parent/caregiver interview. Parent information is also used in writing treatment goals and developing home programs. As part of the team, the parents are viewed by the SLP as valued members of the team.
