PROMPT Therapy:
We embrace the innovative PROMPT (Prompts for Restructuring Oral Muscular Phonetic Targets) Therapy to support individuals with speech production challenges. Our certified speech-language pathologists are trained in the PROMPT approach, offering a tactile-kinesthetic intervention that has transformed the therapeutic landscape.
Understanding PROMPT Therapy
PROMPT Therapy is more than just a technique; it’s a holistic philosophy that integrates physical-sensory, cognitive-linguistic, and social-emotional aspects of communication1. It’s known for its tactile-kinesthetic application, where therapists use touch cues on the client’s face to guide the jaw, lips, and tongue, facilitating correct word formation
Our PROMPT Therapy Services:
- Tailored Assessments: Each journey begins with a personalized evaluation using unique assessment tools to identify the client’s needs
- Hands-On Guidance: Our therapists provide direct physical prompts to support and shape the motor movements required for speech
- Functional Speech Focus: We prioritize word targets that are meaningful to the client, ensuring engagement and motivation throughout the therapy process
- Family Involvement: We believe in the power of family support and provide training for family members to reinforce therapy goals at home
