'ListenLoveLearn' PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN WITH AUDITORY PROCESSING AND LISTNEING DISORDERS
Many children with Auditory Processing and Listening Disorders do not receive the specific and specialized treatment they deserve. Our therapists have been personally trained by Lois Heymann, M.A., CCC-SLP on the 'ListenLoveLearn' program; a structured process to help develop a child's listening skills, leading to major improvements in language, academic and social skills. We have the advanced training and clinical knowledge to target specific listening skills that these children need in order to understand language, communicate effectively, read and socially interact with others.

PROMPT (Prompts for Restructuring Oral Muscular Phonetic Targets)
PROMPT is a multi-sensory approach to speech production disorders. It may be used to treat a variety of speech production disorders, for children ages 6 months old to adults. PROMPT may be used to teach sound production, revise or change production or to integrate motor production within language therapy. Many of our therapists have completed training from the PROMPT Institute and are therefore able to effectively use these techniques in therapy.

GESTALT LANGUAGE PROCESSING
Many Autistic children learn language through a different model, known as Gestalt Language Processing (GLP) or Natural Language Acquisition (NLA), that can unfortunately be misunderstood. Our therapists have received additional and advanced training from the likes of Alexandria Zachos, M.S. CCC-SLP from Meaningful Speech, and Marge Blanc M.A., CCC-SLP to better serve your child's unique language development. With training in Natural Language Acquisition, our therapists can help identify your child's developmental language stage, help you decode the meaning behind some of their gestalts, and help create meaningful and powerful targets to work towards.
