Speech therapists can help your child improve both their receptive language (what your child understands) and expressive language (how they communicate to others). Let us know how your speech therapist has helped your child reach any of the following milestones!

May is Better Hearing and Speech Month! We are excited to highlight the many areas of development that Speech Language Pathologists can target this month. We're kicking things off with articulation (sound pronunciation). If your child is difficult to understand, speech therapy can help!

Family is so important to us at CTC!

Parent involvement in therapy is extremely beneficial. A child may see different therapists throughout his or her lifetime, but a parent will be their teacher for life. Parents can carryover strategies from therapy sessions to the home and continue to generalize skills.
