Whether it's to get ahead, fine tune, or achieve maximum potential, we design programs to fit each individual's unique needs. We don't just teach remedial strategies, we address the underlying causes to achieve outstanding results. Dedicated Professionals
SPS Speech-Language Pathologists hold Master's Degrees or higher in Speech-Language Pathology, are certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, and are licensed to practice in the state of Georgia. SPS Occupational Therapists hold a Master's Degree or higher in Occupational Therapy, have advanced training in Sensory Processing Disorders, are registered by the National Board of Certification for Occupational Therapy, and are licensed to practice in the state of Georgia. Our professional staff members regularly attend advanced training seminars as we are eager to expand our knowledge base and expertise to offer effective, state-of-the art treatment models for children and adults. We offer a variety of brain plasticity programs designed to help change the brain. If we target the root cause and establish new brain pathways by specific, repetitive practice, skills become automatic, learning is much easier, and success is within reach. These programs include Fast ForWord, IM: Interactive Metronome, and iLS: Integrated Listening Systems.

A white paper published in 2014 examined how to improve students' reading achievements. Here are the highlights:

• Five critical factors for reading are phonological awareness,
phonics or word recognition, fluency, vocabulary and comprehension

• Research indicates many children who struggle with reading have difficulty processing the “fast parts” of speech

• The brain is able to change itself (brain plasticity) beyond early development. The stimuli needed to change the brain must be intentional, intense, focused and repetitive.


Where reading and brain science meet:

• Fast ForWord was developed to train students in sound perception using technology to alter the production of the “fast” sounds.

• Clinical research indicated that students using and enhanced auditory processing program made significantly greater progress in speech discrimination, language processing, and grammatical comprehension

• Fast ForWord and Reading Assistant appear to offer some new ways of thinking about and approaching reading instruction using technology and our understandings of what is important in learning to read.
