Evaluations and Treatment

Questions about services or looking for guidance? Consultations and parent coaching are available. I will address any questions/concerns you have and provide my professional support. 

Speech-language pathologists  are experts at screening individuals for possible communication, hearing, and/or feeding and swallowing disorders. SLPs have the knowledge of and skills to treat these disorders; they can design and implement effective screening programs and make appropriate referrals. These screenings facilitate referral for appropriate follow-up in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Speech-language pathologists have expertise in the differential diagnosis of disorders of communication and swallowing. Mindful Speech & Wellness provides comprehensive evaluations for a variety of speech, language, and swallowing/feeding disorders. After an evaluation is completed, you will receive a detailed report, including recommendations and suggested goals for intervention. 

Speech-language services are designed to optimize individuals' ability to communicate and swallow, thereby improving quality of life. SLPs develop and implement treatment to address the presenting symptoms or concerns of a communication or swallowing problem or related functional issue. The ultimate goal of therapy is to improve an individual's functional outcomes. Individualized therapy sessions will be recommended depending on individual needs. Therapy is fun and interactive, creating an environment that keeps therapy engaging. Caregivers are encouraged to participate in the session to allow for generalization and carry-over of learned skills outside of speech therapy. 

All services are currently available for California residents ONLY in order to keep in line with American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) and state licensure guidelines. However, we will happily guide those who are seeking a clinician in their state.
