Frequently Asked Questions

Our speech-language pathologists are trained to evaluate clients based on Help Me Speak’s approach which combines PROMPT, Talk Tools hierarchies, Beckman stretches, standard articulation tests (as appropriate) and the Kaufman Speech Praxis Test. 

The next part of the evaluation includes a detailed assessment of the stability, control/grading, coordination, dissociation (separation of movement), and strength of the jaw, lips, tongue and cheeks through the examination of eating skills with a variety of food textures and through the analysis of the client’s oral motor skills on the Talk Tools hierarchies.
