Our mission is to improve the lives of children with speech, auditory processing, reading, sensory integration, apraxia, feeding and motor difficulties, as well as to improve the lives of adults with typical age-related memory difficulties and listening difficulties.
Some of our programs include traditional speech language therapy, occupational therapy, off-site observations, home visits (to develop sensory processing playrooms), team evaluations, individual, group, or co-treatment models of intervention, and community seminars.
We always provide a comprehensive diagnosis, provide you with current information, and confer with medical and educational professionals as needed.
At SPS, each patient program is carefully chosen based on leading medical research. Our programs are then tailored to meet the individual. We know that not everyone fits a mold and that your health care should be as unique as you are.
Some additional programs we provide include Fast ForWord and Reading Assistant software, Integrated Listening Systems (iLs), Interactive Metronome, Memory Matters, Toddler Talk, Tongue Thrust Programs, and many more.
