[QUOTE="SRL, post: 429270, member: 701"] A good speech therapist for children of this age will incorporate games and try to add some fun into the therapy. If you can find a therapist that will let you sit in on the sessions, it will help you considerably to learn the ropes so that you can be working on some aspects at home. The diagnosis shouldn't matter all that much--a good speech therapist will be flexible and if they don't have experience with a particular diagnosis, they'll do their homework. Speech language pathologists may work on a very wide range of issues, depending on the needs of the child: swallowing, articulation, language processing, appropriate social speech, being able to ask and answer questions appropriately, sequencing, ironing out quirky language to be more socially appropriate, controlling volume, role playing specific situations, stuttering, auditory processing problems like having difficulty separating out oral speech from background sound, etc. [/QUOTE]
