🎃👻 A friendly reminder from your local SLPs: not every “trick-or-treat” looks the same. Celebrate connection, not perfection, and remember to make room for every child to join in the fun! 🍬🦇

A little marker magic is always a good thing! We were making wands to use while reading Room on the Broom, and someone added their own creative touch. Therapy tools are even better when kids get to make them their own. 🎨 🧚‍♀️ ✨

Behind every successfull therapy session is a team that keeps learning. At SST, we’re committed to ongoing professional growth. Our speech therapists attend trainings, explore new approaches, and share those insights with each other so the kids and families we serve receive the very best support.

You might not know this, but Swanson Speech Therapy provides onsite services throughout the community, including at Agape Child Care Center. We love our local partners who make space for us to work with kiddos in ways that fit them best. This day was an extra fun one — an obstacle course was already set up, and it turned into the perfect speech therapy session!

These rainbow “cluster monsters” are fun, engaging, and just a little bit silly - a perfect speech therapy combo! We are big believers that the best learning happens when kids are having fun. 🌈 🤓

👋 Meet Bettye! The newest member of our team, she has extensive and diverse experience. Her clinical focus is in the following areas: speech sound production, receptive and expressive language delays, social communication, AAC (augmentative and alternative communication), behavior therapy, gestalt language processing, parent coaching, play based therapy, early language delays (e.g., late talkers), and family processing in receiving an autism diagnosis. We love that she has an individualized, compassionate, and flexible approach to therapy. Her philosophy is to provide meaningful, holistic, and engaging therapy to help clients and their families feel empowered and motivated to accomplish their goals.

There’s no “wrong” way to play! Play is how children explore, connect, and communicate... and every child’s play looks a little different. Our Play Development Handout outlines common stages of play and offers simple, practical ways to support your child’s growth at home.

Sometimes therapy doesn’t go exactly as planned, and we have to improvise a bit! When a kiddo “borrowed” this game and ripped up W***y, we turned it into an opportunity to work on speech sounds, expressive language, and problem-solving skills... all while repairing the game together. (Sorry, W***y!) 🕷️🕸️

💪 Autism and other neurodevelopmental differences are often framed around “what’s missing.” But what if we flip that? Many children bring incredible gifts like strong memory skills, problem-solving abilities, creativity, empathy, or persistence. That's why our SLPs look for strengths alongside challenges - the balance gives us the clearest picture of how we can help.

Before words come gestures, and these intenional movements fufill three core functions: Social Interaction, Behavior Regulation & Joint Attention. You can support your child’s communication growth in a number of simple ways, like pairing “bye-bye” with a wave, and pausing to let your child copy your gestures.

Keep in mind that every gesture your child uses is a chance to connect, so don’t forget to respond!

🛑 At Swanson Speech Therapy, practice is never boring! In this session, we sorted cards into “long sounds” vs. “short sounds” to target the phonological process of stopping. Activities like this make concepts fun and interactive for little learners and are a big part of our clinic’s play-based approach.
