Parent Workshop "Undercover Speech Therapist"

• Are you concerned about your child's speech skills?
• Is your child currently receiving speech therapy?
• Does your child have behavioral issues that may be related to communication difficulties
• Do you want to get better results in less time?

Learn the hidden approach the professionals use to most efficiently diagnose speech issues, formulate a plan, and get results.

A two-hour class, presented in the evening to accommodate working parents, is designed to help parents:

• Get Results Faster — by revealing the hidden incentives that children respond to in learning to speak
• Gain More Knowledge — by learning how professionals approach a speech and language delay
• Save Time — by focusing on the most effective approach for your situation and "doing fewer things better"

The class is very practical and focused on equipping parents to make immediate improvements with their child. We will illustrate different styles of communication, required actions to be successful, and the most common pitfalls that good, well-intended parents make in trying to help their child.

You do not have to be a professional to teach your child to speak or communicate well with others. Taking this class may be the first step for you and your child toward better communication.
