Reading & Literacy
Struggling readers need more than practice — they need the right instruction.
When a bright child struggles to read, it's not about effort or intelligence. It often means they need explicit instruction in the language systems behind reading. We provide systematic, evidence-informed reading intervention that builds the foundation struggling readers need.
For: School-age children of all ages
Reading and language are deeply connected. Word reading, spelling, and written expression rely on phonological, orthographic, morphological, semantic, and syntactic knowledge — the language systems speech-language pathologists assess and treat.
Our comprehensive assessment evaluates reading skills, phonological awareness, and language abilities to pinpoint exactly where the breakdown is occurring.
Intervention uses structured literacy and Orton-Gillingham-informed approaches: explicit, systematic, cumulative, multisensory, and individualized. We track progress so you can see which skills are changing and where support is still needed.
