Speech Sound Production Therapy

If your child has difficulty producing speech sounds accurately, they may benefit from speech sound production therapy. According to Crowe & McLeod (2020), all speech sounds should be acquired by 6 years 11 months. When a speech sound disorder is present, it may impact someone’s ability to be understood by their communication partners. Difficulty producing speech sounds may negatively impact phonological awareness abilities, which are foundational to becoming a skilled reader.
