Family Services

Restoring the hope of legacy - one session at a time. 

At Destined to Speak, we understand the importance of family legacy and how a speech or language disorder/diagnosis can challenge the hopes and dreams you have for your little one. We are here to help families understand and treat those disorders -while also serving as a support system as you navigate these unexpected hurdles.

Comprehensive Speech and Language Assessment

A comprehensive speech and language assessment provides an in-depth understanding of your child's communication strengths and areas of needs. The evaluation may include a review of developmental history, caregiver interview, standardized assessments, clinical observations and analysis of your child's speech, language and social communication skills. 

Following the assessment, families receive a detailed summary of findings, recommendations, and individualized next steps to support your child's communication development. When appropriate, therapy recommendations and strategies for home support are provided to help families feel confident in supporting your child's progress. 

Ages: School-Age Children - 5-19 years of age

Speech and/or Language Therapy Services

Individualized speech and language therapy is driven by the results and findings of the comprehensive speech and language assessment. Therapy is designed to support children in developing functional communication skills and addresses each child's specific communication needs through targeted, evidence-based strategies designed to support progress across every day settings. Families are also provided with guidance and strategies to support continued growth beyond therapy sessions.
