SPEECH & LANGUAGE SERVICES
SPEECH/LANGUAGE EVALUATIONS
Speech and language evaluations are available to determine the nature of your child's communication weakness.
*Are you a school district looking to contract for assistance with evaluations? Email me at kallie@kknighttherapy.com.
RECEPTIVE & EXPRESSIVE LANGUAGE DELAYS
Language delays affect an individual's ability to understand and/or use language (e.g., speak). Services are available for early language and literacy. Services for gestalt language processors (GLP) are also available.
SPEECH-SOUND DISORDERS
Speech-sound disorders affect and individual's ability to produce speech sounds, resulting in listeners having difficulty understanding the speaker. Examples include articulation, phonological and motor speech disorders.
For example, your child might say:
"tar" for "car"
​"won" for "run"
"da" for "dog"
"pie" for "spy"
EXECUTIVE FUNCTION DELAYS
Executive function skills direct our goal directed actions and lay the foundation for learning. Deficits in executive functioning can impact all aspects of learning, interaction and life. Support for students with ADHD is available.
STUTTERING
Stuttering can affect an individual's ability to freely speak and communicate. Speech might seem "bumpy" or "stuck." Speech therapy can help an individual to learn strategies to help words flow with greater ease and/or to improve self-advocacy and acceptance of their communication style.
BILINGUAL (SPANISH) SERVICES
Speech and language services can be provided in Spanish upon request. Bilingual Spanish evaluations are also available upon request.
