Our Services in San Jose
PA Speech offers speech, language and communication therapy services for a wide range of needs at the San Jose clinic. Below are some of the services available to support children, teens and adults with communication goals.
Pediatric Speech Therapy
Pediatric speech therapy supports children who need help communicating more clearly, confidently and comfortably. Families may seek speech therapy when a child is hard to understand, uses fewer words than expected, has trouble following directions, struggles to answer questions or needs support with autism, AAC, apraxia or stuttering.
Childhood Apraxia & Motor Speech Therapy
Some clients need support because speech is affected by motor planning and coordination. Childhood apraxia of speech can make it difficult for a child to plan and sequence the movements needed for clear speech.
AAC Therapy
Augmentative and Alternative Communication, also known as AAC, can help clients communicate when spoken language alone is not enough. AAC may include picture supports, communication boards, gestures, speech-generating devices or other tools.
Speech Sound & Articulation Therapy
Speech sound and articulation therapy helps clients who are difficult to understand or who have trouble producing specific sounds. Some clients leave sounds out, substitute one sound for another or have speech patterns that affect clarity.
Language Therapy
Language therapy helps clients strengthen how they understand and use language. This may include following directions, answering questions, building vocabulary, using longer sentences, telling stories, understanding social communication or expressing ideas more clearly.
Stuttering & Fluency Therapy
Stuttering and other fluency challenges can affect communication confidence. Some clients repeat sounds or words, stretch sounds, get stuck when speaking or avoid certain speaking situations because communication feels stressful.
Autism Communication Support
Autism communication support is an important part of the care provided at PA Speech. Every autistic client communicates in their own way. Some use spoken language. Some use AAC. Some communicate through scripts, gestures, pictures, facial expressions or other meaningful communication methods.
Speech Intelligibility & Delayed Speech
Some children have many things to say but are hard for others to understand. Speech intelligibility support helps identify the sounds, patterns or motor speech needs that are affecting clarity.
Accent Modification
Improve your speech clarity and reduce communication barriers in professional or social settings. Our accent modification program helps clients speak more clearly while maintaining their cultural identity.
Teletherapy
Teletherapy may be available when appropriate for the client’s needs, goals and service type. Virtual sessions can make therapy more accessible for some families and adults while still supporting meaningful communication goals.
