Speech-Language Pathology
Speech Language Pathologists are vital to understand the scope and impact of speech delay or disorder. Difficulty with language is not always a lack of ability to express thoughts and feelings. The cause may be a challenge with perception, understanding, or even cognitive communication and memory. At IAT we focus on the whole picture, striving to understand and identify the origin of the communication roadblock to help our clients navigate the world around them and learn to effectively express themselves.
