Ramsdell Speech Pathology is ready to help with personalized speech therapy for your child that is both fun and functional. Here is more information about my areas of specialty.

Speech Sound Disorders

  • Articulation or speech sound production

  • Phonology

    • Phonological processes are like shortcuts our brains take when we're learning to talk. Sometimes, instead of saying a whole word exactly right, we use simpler sounds or change the order of sounds. For example, saying 'wabbit' instead of 'rabbit' or 'tat' instead of 'cat.' These processes are normal as kids learn to talk, but as they get older, they should start using the correct sounds more often.
