Pacific Speech And Language

At PSL, we work with children ages 6 months and up. We have been providing speech-language services for children and their families since 2001. We specialize in: Motor speech disorders (articulation disorders, apraxia, etc.) Language disorders and language delays, including "late talkers" Autism Spectrum Disorders Augmentative communication (speech... output devices, picture exchange/PECS, etc.) Preverbal communication delay in infants and toddlers We have experience with children from various cultural and linguistic backgrounds. Research shows that speech-language treatment helps children with delays and disorders communicate better. Even children who are not talking yet can benefit from speech-language intervention.
