Speech therapy is a type of medical intervention that includes the diagnosis and treatment of speech and communication problems in a person. Speech therapists, also known as speech-language pathologists, offer speech therapy programs.
At Butterfly Learnings, your child with speech or communication issues due to developmental or behavioral disorders will benefit from our well-curated speech therapy sessions. The different types of speech disorders we treat include:
- Aphasia: In this type of disorder, the child faces difficulty in speaking, understanding language, writing, or reading.
- Articulation Disorder: The child cannot produce certain word sounds in this disorder.
- Apraxia: Although the child knows what to say, he or she cannot put their exact thoughts into words in this disorder.
- Dysarthria: In this condition, the child has slurred or slow speech.
- Expressive Disorders: The child has difficulty expressing his or her thoughts and using words in this type of disorder.
- Cognitive-Communication Disorders: Damage to that portion of the brain that controls the thinking ability of a person and leads to communication issues leads to this type of disorder.
- Receptive Disorders: The child faces difficulty in understanding and processing what other people are saying in this type of disorder.
- Resonance Disorders: This type of disorder develops due to health issues such as swollen tonsils and cleft palate affecting the structure of the child’s mouth and nose.
- Fluency Disorders: The flow, speed, and rhythm of speech in a child are affected by this disorder. The common types of fluency disorders include stammering or stuttering and cluttering.
We offer one-on-one speech therapy sessions at Butterfly Learnings Center, depending on the child’s needs.
We use evidence-based interventions to help children manage their speech problems. We use a child-friendly approach, which includes activities like language-based board games, sequencing games, etc. to encourage the child’s communication and interaction abilities.
Individuals belonging to any age group can undergo speech therapy. However, starting speech therapy sessions at an early age is known to have better treatment outcomes.
