Speech Therapy

Speech therapy at Easterseals Joliet Region helps children improve their communication skills so they can express themselves, understand others, and participate more fully in everyday life. Our speech-language pathologists work with each child to address speech sounds, language development, social communication, and other related areas, creating fun, engaging sessions that motivate progress. We also partner with families, providing strategies to support communication growth at home, school, and in the community.

Speech/Language

Speech and language therapy focuses on building a child’s ability to understand and use language effectively. This may include helping with articulation (pronouncing sounds correctly), expanding vocabulary, improving sentence structure, enhancing listening comprehension, and developing conversation skills. Therapy activities often use play, books, games, and interactive tasks to make learning communication both enjoyable and effective.
