Speech & Language Diagnostic Evaluations & Therapy

---

Northern Valley Speech Language Learning offers services to children ages 18 months of age through 17 years old, which include a complete formal diagnostic evaluation with a written report, discussion of results with the patient and/or family, consultation with appropriate professionals, counseling, and recommendations. Family members are included in the treatment sessions whenever possible to facilitate carryover into the patient's environment, thereby maximizing the impact of treatment. We feel that a team approach to treatment is very important, and we work closely with the patient, family, physician, and other professionals (i.e., counselor, teacher) to achieve the most efficient and effective results.

In addition to the areas listed below, we provide evaluation and treatment of auditory processing deficits that may negatively impact reading, writing, and academic language. We comprehensively diagnose and treat these challenges from a speech and language perspective by addressing aspects such as memory, comprehension, vocabulary, discrimination, phonological processing, sequencing, and organization.
