Giving Everyone a Voice
Speech Therapy at TEAMability is a family-centered practice with a focus on treatment outcomes to enhance independence in the home, school, work, and community. Teaching in natural contexts and providing training for communication partners (including peers) is our guiding principle.
We pride ourselves as a training facility with an integrative approach and we provide an open and supportive climate for students in training to facilitate academic, professional and personal development with the support of mentors from multiple disciplines.
