Speech Therapy at Divine Deeds
What is Speech Therapy?
Speech therapy is the bridge of communication that allows your child to express themselves freely and be clear about their thoughts, observations and needs. At Divine Deeds, our speech therapy sessions focus on enhancing clarity, vocabulary and comprehension through personalised exercises. Using engaging and interactive methods, we help your child gain command over pronunciation, fluency and language understanding issues. We work closely with families, ensuring that progress made in therapy is supported at home and in other social settings.
Why Choose Speech Therapy?
Our speech therapy mainly addresses communication-related challenges in children, where we aim to express ourselves more clearly and improve both verbal and non-verbal interactions. It helps significantly in improving comprehension skills and building confidence, which contributes directly to their overall development. At Divine Deeds, we aim to reduce frustration and anxiety associated with communication difficulties, giving each child the tools to communicate their thoughts, ideas and emotions freely.
Common Speech Disorders that Children Face
Children may experience a range of speech disorders that impact their ability to communicate effectively.
Here are some common issues:
- Articulation Disorders – Difficulty pronouncing certain sounds.
- Fluency Disorders – Stuttering or an unusual rhythm in speech.
- Resonance Disorders – Issues with voice pitch, volume, or quality.
- Receptive Language Disorders – Trouble understanding spoken language.
- Expressive Language Disorders – Difficulty forming sentences or finding words.
Our Role
As speech therapists, our goal is to help children overcome communication challenges. At Divine Deeds, we guide children through exercises that improve articulation, fluency, and comprehension. We use a collaborative environment where parents, teachers, and caregivers provide guidance on supporting communication skills outside therapy. With a focus on patience and positive reinforcement, our therapists create a safe and encouraging environment where children can thrive.
Who Needs Speech Therapy?
Speech therapy is beneficial for children who struggle with various aspects of communication. Your child may need speech therapy if they:
- Have trouble pronouncing sounds clearly.
- Repeat sounds or syllables frequently (stuttering).
- Struggle to understand spoken language or directions.
- Have difficulty expressing ideas, thoughts, or emotions.
- Show frustration with communication, leading to behavioural issues.
How Long Will Your Child Need Speech Therapy?
The duration of speech therapy varies based on each child’s unique needs and progress; some may show improvement within a few months, while others might require ongoing support. Several factors influence the length of therapy, including the type and severity of the speech disorder, the child’s age and developmental stage, the frequency and consistency of therapy sessions, and the level of family involvement and support at home.
