How Speech Therapy is implemented:

Speech language pathologists figure out what kind of language problem the child has. They determine what’s causing it and decide on the best treatment. Speech language pathologists may help kids build skills by working with them in one-on-one sessions as well as in small groups.

SLPs use strategies tailored for each child’s particular challenge. Treatment for the child may last for months or even for a few years. It is based on the needs of the child. Earlier the intervention better the prognosis.
