Language Development Services

Supporting children to understand and express themselves effectively

What is Language Development Therapy?

Language development therapy helps children who struggle with understanding language (receptive language) or expressing themselves (expressive language). We work on vocabulary, grammar, sentence structure, and social communication skills.

Our therapists use naturalistic, play-based approaches that target language skills in meaningful, functional contexts.
