Curious about Language Disorders? Let us help.

Language therapy addresses receptive, expressive or mixed skills. A receptive language disorder is one in which a person struggles to understand and process messages and information received from others. An expressive language disorder refers to difficulty using language which is spoken, written or conveyed with other sign/symbol systems. Language disorders may be developmental or acquired (brain injury).

Londa helps those with language disorders by determining individual strengths and needs. Some areas that may be addressed include: 

• Phonology: sounds and rules that govern combinations
  
• Morphology: structure of words and word forms
  
• Syntax: order and combination of words to form sentences (grammar)
  
• Semantics: the meaning of words and sentences (vocabulary)
• Following directions
• Answering and asking questions
• Understanding and retelling stories
  
• Understanding and using socially appropriate communication​
