Therapy consists of weekly sessions, preferably 2-3times each week, with home exercise plan to carryover skilled therapy techniques into the child's home environment. Each session is geared towards the individual child's needs. Therapy will begin with an evaluation to determine that child's current level of speech and language and goals will be based on that child as well as their parent's goals. Parent participation and carryover at home is a significant piece to the puzzle and success of the child.
Parents are involved from the initial therapy evaluation. They are crucial part of the process. Not only do they spend the most time with their child on a daily basis but they are also the ones responsible for insuring they make their speech appointments. Parents are responsible for learning how to implement the homework at home and carryover the specific techniques used in the therapy into their child's natural environments. This will look different to each family. I also like to remind parents homework doesn't mean a worksheet and sitting down at table. It could be practicing speech words while in the car, during bath time, or while grocery shopping. Small bits of time woven throughout your day with your child make big impacts.
AAC can be used as a way to initially teach a child the importance of communication. It can give the child feelings of success while they are unable to verbally communicate. This may be used in low tech way, PECS, or with a device such as LAMP Words for Life.
