What is an Speech-Language Pathologist?
Speech-Language Pathologists, also called SLPs or Speech Therapists
,
are highly-trained experts in communication.

In a school setting, Speech-Language Pathologists treat children primarily with:
Speech Disorders
Articulation - difficulty with how children say speech sounds
Phonology - speech patterns children use to simply adult speech
Apraxia - motor speech disorder that can impact a child's ability to sequence movements needed to make speech sounds, words, phrases, sentences
Fluency - repetitive use of sounds, words or phrases; stuttering
Language Disorders
Receptive Language - difficulty understanding spoken language such as vocabulary, questions or directions
Expressive Language - difficulty using words in verbal or written communication. May include errors or deletion of grammar, word order, vocabulary
Pragmatic Language - difficulty interacting with others
