Therapy Matters NY SLP

Therapy Matters NY SLP licensed speech-language pathologists specializing in pediatric feeding and swallowing disorders

We are licensed speech-language pathologists who specialize in pediatric feeding and swallowing disorders. As part of our feeding program we:
• Provide comprehensive feeding and swallowing evaluation which includes assessment of oral-motor structures and function, analysis of food repertoire, as well as behavioral analysis;
• Supply caregivers with a list of recommendations and hands-on strategies to implement at home immediately after the initial evaluation;
• Work in close collaboration with other health care professionals such as GI doctors, allergists, pediatricians, nutritionists and others to ensure we cover from all stand points;
• Strongly believe in “family” therapy and involve every member of the family throughout the entire process.

Today’s myofunctional evaluation is of an 8-year-old with chief complaints including mouth breathing, drooling, snoring, and sleeping with the mouth open, as well as speech/articulation issues.

We have our tools ready to help us achieve:
👃🏼Nasal breathing with lips closed
👅 Tongue suctioned to the palate with the tip on the "spot"
💬 Better range of motion and coordination of the muscles of the lips, tongue, and jaw, allowing for mature speech and swallowing

☝🏼Important! Making sure the airway is open and nasal breathing is possible is key before using some of these tools, and in fully tackling our goals.

✨️ Meet the team, Liz ✨️

As the lead provider of myofunctional therapy at Therapy Matters NY SLP for the past 5 years, Elizabeth utilizes an interdisciplinary approach in conjunction with her client’s dental and orthodontic team, as well as a holistic approach in treating her clients. This approach allows not only to treat the symptoms, but also to address the root causes of any muscle dysfunction in order to establish improved sleep quality, proper nasal breathing, tongue posture, and muscle function for optimal speech and swallowing.

Elizabeth’s certifications include training in myofunctional disorders from the International Association of Orofacial Myology, Talk Tools Feeding Therapy: A Sensory Motor Approach, Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT), and VitalStim.

Elizabeth is dedicated to providing a fun and supportive environment, with a strong clinical foundation, for each of her clients so that they can reach their highest potential. She has clinical experience in various adult and pediatric settings, and has treated pathologies ranging from voice, aphasia, articulation, feeding aversions, swallowing disorders, and dysarthria/apraxia of speech.

Additionally, Elizabeth is a certified energy healing practitioner. Similarly, in the treatment of myofunctional disorders, Elizabeth considers the interconnectedness of the body’s systems, as well as the mind-body connection, when determining the sources and necessary modalities for releasing any blockages in a client’s energy field.

Making food exploration extra fun this Valentine’s Day! 💖
Today, we’re discovering the magic of blackberries - not just for eating, but as a natural coloring tool too! 🍇✨

Sensory play is such an amazing way for little ones to learn about foods, explore textures, colors, and tastes, and build a positive relationship with what they eat. Every messy, creative moment is a learning moment!

Encourage curiosity, creativity, and a love of healthy foods - one blackberry at a time!

✨ Today the spotlight is on one of the best evidence-based and highly skilled approaches we offer here, at Therapy Matters NY SLP: PROMPT Therapy! 🤲🗣

Looking for a proven, hands-on approach to help your child speak more clearly? PROMPT therapy uses gentle touch cues on the face to guide the jaw, lips, and cheeks—helping kids learn precise mouth movements for accurate speech.
💡 How it works:
Touch cues act like a map for your child’s articulators

Supports voiced vs. voiceless sounds 🔊🤐

Gradually fades guidance—like removing training wheels 🚲—so speech becomes natural and independent

Suitable for all ages, PROMPT is especially effective for those with difficulty planning, coordinating, or controlling speech movements, including apraxia of speech and other motor-based speech disorders 💬

✅ Top-rated, hands-on therapy that really works!

Give your child the tools to speak confidently and clearly—because every voice matters.

Please feel free to inquire more info here or call/WhatsApp us at 347-292-9899.

Today we’re having fun with the tricky Vocalic R! 🗣 We’re practicing pulling the tongue back and bunching it into a ‘taco’ 🌮 shape, which helps get it into just the right spot. Using coarticulation, we’re guiding the tongue and lips to move together smoothly, making it easier to produce that perfect R sound. Little activities like this turn tricky sounds into a fun challenge and help build strong speech skills!
