Speech and Language Assessment

Comprehensive speech and language assessment helps identify strengths, clarify areas of need, and guide next steps. Whether you’re seeking answers, planning support, or monitoring progress, we take a thoughtful, collaborative approach that results in clear, practical recommendations tailored to each individual.

Our assessments are designed to provide meaningful information that supports informed decision-making across home, educational and community environments. We recognize communication is only one part of the whole picture, and we work collaboratively to understand each individual’s unique strengths, needs and circumstances.

We offer assessments for:

    • How clearly a child produces speech sounds and whether their sound development is progressing as expected.

    • How a child understands spoken language and uses words and sentences to share ideas, needs, and experiences.

    • How a child connects and communicates with others through interaction, conversation, and play.

    • Foundational communication skills, including gestures, first words, combining words, and early understanding of language.

Professional Development

We work alongside organizations to provide professional learning that reflects their goals, builds confidence, and supports lasting growth within their teams. Every session is shaped by your context and includes practical ideas that can be used across classrooms, homes, and community settings. 

Professional learning opportunities may include:
