Comprehensive Speech and Language Evaluations

It’s normal to wonder whether your toddler’s speech is developing as expected or if your school aged child is meeting academic expectations. Many children experience delays in communication, and it can be hard to know what’s typical and when to seek support. If your child struggles to be understood, has a limited vocabulary, or becomes frustrated when trying to communicate and express academic concepts, you’re not alone—help is available.

What to Expect During Your Child’s Evaluation

Our comprehensive evaluations look at your child’s speech, language, cognitive, and social-emotional development. We assess your child’s strengths and challenges, helping you understand what’s typical, what may need support, and how therapy can help.

  • Detailed case history to understand your child’s communication and learning profile

  • Informal executive function and social-emotional checklists to capture strengths and challenges

  • Parent and teacher questionnaires for insight across environments

  • Observational data gathered through dynamic assessment

  • Formal testing measures (when applicable)

  • Play-based assessment (when applicable)
