Description of Therapy:
Elisabeth’s speech/language sessions are 45-minutes in length. Forty minutes are for direct services and then 5-minutes for parent consult. During this time, carry-over activities and/or homework are provided, reviewed, and modeled with parents. This is an important piece of the child’s therapeutic experience, as home support is essential for generalization of learned skills. The therapy sessions are child-centered and play based.
