A differential diagnosis is critical in providing the right treatment for a speech delay. When in doubt seek out an SLP with the background and training to evaluate and establish goals and interventions. It’s not just one feature, one ah ha. Treating motor planning deficits as phonological patterns is ineffective. In early intervention, we want to be making the most of every intervention opportunity.

Understanding this difference is key in meeting the child where they are and growing their language with them.

Some conversations don’t just give us new information…they shift how we see the entire picture.

This was one of those conversations.

Recently speechdude and I were honored to interview SLP Marge Blanc on our show.

Helloooo Fall 2025 Semester!
We are coming in with a few holistic tips for your pediatric motor speech sessions.

Once you complete your Dynamic Assessment and differential diagnosis--you will have a solid idea of the child's strengths and treatment should seek to build upon them.

With the use of KP & KR feedback, we shape the accuracy of the childs production attempts.

Focusing on the whole child will yield faster results with a lasting impact.

Staying tuned in to current research will not only benefit your practice but each individual child that works with you will also benefit.

Have you Made the Shift to pediatric motor speech therapy?!?!
