Assessment and Treatment of Communication Disorders
There are four various speech disorders the Speechworx will address with either you or a loved one:
- Articulation Errors: If your child is presenting with incorrect production of speech sounds, that is presented as substitution of one sound for another and sound omissions or distortion errors in words. You may contact the Speechworx team for a further evaluation or consult, to determine if the errors are age appropriate. Persisting errors in the child’s speech, past the developmental age of acquisition could later influence the child’s literacy development. Read on here for more on articulation errors.
- Childhood Apraxia: If you suspect your child to be suffering from childhood apraxia, know that we can help you address this disorder. Read on here for more on childhood apraxia.

Assessment and Treatment of Language Disorders
If you have difficulty either understanding others (receptive language), or conveying your own thoughts, ideas, or feelings, you may be prone to a language disorder. Language disorders may be either spoken, written or both. We help all people tackle this hurdle and overcome any language disorder present. Read on here for more about language disorders.
Assessment and Treatment of Feeding Disorders
Within feeding disorders, we treat two main problems which may arise in our patients:
