Apraxia of Speech

Apraxia of speech is when someone has difficulty with sequencing speech movements from one sound to the next. For example, if you were to say the word 'cat', you would first make the 'c' sound, then the 'a' sound, and end with the ’t’ sound. Someone with apraxia would have a hard time smoothing out and programming their tongue to move from 'c' to 'a' to 't' as we would typically expect to hear. At The Speech Clinic, our S-LPs can work with you or your child on personalized and specific exercises to improve apraxia of speech. We have S-LPs trained in both PROMPT© and Kaufman if this programming is required.
