What is Speech Therapy?
Speech therapy, also known as speech-language therapy, helps children develop communication skills. This includes speaking, understanding language, social communication, reading, and writing. Speech-language therapists (SLTs) work with children who have various communication challenges to improve their ability to express themselves and understand others.
At Brightstars, our licensed speech-language therapists use evidence-based techniques in a supportive, play-based environment. We specialize in helping children with autism develop functional communication skills, while also addressing speech delays, articulation disorders, and language difficulties.
