What is Speech Sound Therapy?
Speech Sound Therapy is a specialized form of therapy provided by Speech Language Pathologists (SLPs) to target speech sound disorders. The goal of speech sound therapy (also sometimes referred to as Articulation Therapy) is to improve an individual's ability to produce clear and accurate speech sounds, enhancing their overall communication skills.
This type of Speech Therapy involves structured techniques and activities tailored to each child’s unique needs and individual goals. SLPs employ a combination of auditory, visual, and tactile cues to help individuals develop correct articulation and speech patterns.
Therapy sessions may include exercises, games, and drills that focus on specific speech sounds, syllables, or words. Through consistent practice and guidance, speech sound therapy empowers individuals to enhance their speech intelligibility, build confidence, and improve their communication abilities.
