Pediatric & Adult Therapy Services
Evaluations
We provide online evaluations to gain a comprehensive picture of an individual’s communication, social, and swallowing abilities and challenges. Common assessment tools include:
-
Client and/or caregiver interview
-
Observations of the client engaged in an activity
-
Formal test measures
-
Interactions with the clients
Following the evaluation, we will review our findings with the client and/or family. When therapy is recommended, we will collaboratively develop a treatment plan and goals.
