Articulation refers to how clearly your child produces speech sounds. If your child is difficult to understand, substitutes sounds (e.g., 'wabbit' for 'rabbit'), leaves sounds out of words, or is unclear to people outside the family, they may benefit from articulation therapy.

Our speech pathologists conduct a detailed phonological assessment to identify which sounds are affected and whether the pattern is developmental (age-appropriate) or disordered (requiring intervention). We differentiate between articulation errors (difficulty producing specific sounds) and phonological processes (pattern-based errors that affect groups of sounds).
