Pathways Center speech-language pathologists strive to give your child the tools to communicate effectively. We aim to improve your child’s ability to use verbal and non-verbal language, and to tolerate sensory stimulation. Our speech-language pathologists are highly skilled in addressing feeding and swallowing in infants and children.

Active participation in ongoing professional continuing education programs allows our state licensed speech-language pathologists to create therapy programs which utilize the most current tools and knowledge to help your child.

Some of the specialized treatments offered include:

Neuro-Developmental Treatment (NDT)
Specialized skills in the assessment and treatment of infants
Sequential Oral Sensory (SOS) Approach to Feeding
Oral motor techniques
PROMPT technique
Beckman oral motor technique
Implementation of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC)
Interactive Metronome
Group treatment to promote social skills (some groups offered in conjunction with occupational therapists to best incorporate strategies to support the sensory system)
