Evaluations

Comprehensive speech-language evaluations are done to determine if there is a speech and/or language impairment or deficit and if therapy is appropriate at this time.  Evaluations may include interviews, questionnaires, observations, checklists, language samples, and standardized assessments.  Areas of assessment can include articulation/phonology, receptive and expressive language, fluency, and pragmatic language.  A meeting will be scheduled to explain the results of the assessment.  A report will also be given outlining areas of strength and weakness.
