About Speech Language Play NYC

Anchor 1

​We are speech-language pathologists, but we also have knowledge of many other areas of child development from our work experience, training, and ongoing learning experiences. We are dedicated to treating the whole child. Our speech therapy sessions are guided by our speech, language, and social goals, while also incorporating the motor, sensory, social, and emotional needs of our clients. We regularly consult with other related service providers to ensure we are able to meet our client’s needs in the most holistic way possible.

We are Neurodiversity Affirming

Neurodiversity is a term used as a way of describing the differing ways in which everyone’s brain develops and how this can impact the way a person behaves, sees the world, thinks and feels. 

 

At Speech Language Play NYC we value and celebrate all the ways our client’s brains develop and the beauty of their individual thinking, feeling, and ways of being. While we celebrate neurodiversity, we also understand that the different ways brains develop and work can lead to challenges in a world that is not always set up to support neurodiversity. We recognize challenges in varying aspects of life may occur and we are committed to supporting our clients and their families in the way in which they hope to receive support. Our goal is never to change a person, encourage them to mask or conform to the ways of other people, but rather to support our neurodiverse clients and their families by affirming their identity.
