Feeding therapy doesn’t necessarily refer to office visits. Every child and family is unique, requiring different techniques and goals. Sometimes intervention is 1:1, sometimes parent consultation is part of the plan or a mix of both. The recipes is dynamic and can change with needs.

One thing is for certain. Parent involvement is a must as well as a patience and persistence. Autonomy is always encouraged around structures with parent and child’s roles defined.

We are making progress. Slow and steady for the win! We’ll take it!

Storytelling can be so powerful for children. It is a skill we work on regularly as it impacts social skills, oral and written language proficiency.

I just love this comedian, and she definitely highlights some of the unusual spelling patterns in English language. They actually do make sense that you understand etymology however, this is a fun watch! Excuse the mild profanity.

Despite its clinical ring, "Auditory Processing Disorder" (APD) remains one of the most poorly defined, inconsistently diagnosed, and least useful labels used in school-aged populations.

Decodables provide early and striving readers an optimal environment to learn the code without added overload. It is even better when we create our own passages with cute graphics, targeted spelling patterns and high frequency words.

Reading is certainly a science as intervention must be explicit and sequential and it is also an art! Reading materials must be engaging at all times and targeted!
