Expressive language is how children share their thoughts, feelings, and needs with the world. It’s key to helping them connect with others, navigate daily routines, and confidently express themselves. We support children in building strong expressive language skills, so they can advocate for themselves and thrive in social, academic, and family settings.

Receptive language is the ability to understand and make sense of spoken, written, or signed language. These skills are essential for children to connect with others, follow directions, and engage in meaningful conversations with peers and family. By strengthening receptive language, we help children better navigate the world around them and build strong, positive relationships.

We help children develop essential social communication skills, enabling them to engage more confidently in conversations and social activities. Our focus is on improving their ability to understand and use verbal and non-verbal cues, take turns in conversations, initiate and maintain interactions, and navigate social situations. By building these skills, we empower children to form meaningful connections with peers, express themselves more clearly, and participate fully in everyday social environments.

Stuttering therapy focuses on helping children reduce the frequency and severity of their stutter while building confidence in their ability to communicate. Our goal is to create a supportive environment where children feel empowered to speak freely in different situations and social settings, helping them express themselves with greater ease and self-assurance.

Difficulties with swallowing, known as dysphagia, can affect a child’s ability to eat and drink safely. Our therapy focuses on rehabilitating swallowing skills through targeted exercises and strategies to improve coordination and muscle strength. We work to help children regain the ability to swallow comfortably and safely, supporting their overall health and well-being.

Following a brain injury, speech therapy plays a vital role in helping children recover their language and communication skills. At Heritage, we focus on rebuilding speech clarity, word retrieval, comprehension, and cognitive-communication abilities. Each child receives a personalized rehabilitation plan, designed to support their recovery and help them regain the confidence to express themselves, understand others, and participate in daily life. With our compassionate, evidence-based approach, we guide them every step of the way.
