Utah Pediatric Speech: Expert Pediatric Speech & Language Therapy
Utah Pediatric Speech is a private practice located in Pleasant Grove, Utah, dedicated to providing comprehensive speech and language therapy services to children and adolescents (roughly ages 18 months to 18 years). The lead clinician, certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) and licensed in Utah, brings over 35 years of experience working with a wide range of communication disorders — including articulation difficulties, developmental language disorders, childhood apraxia, stuttering, tongue-thrust, hearing impairment, autism spectrum conditions, and cognitive impairments.
Services at Utah Pediatric Speech include comprehensive assessments, individualized speech and language therapy, and specialized programs such as tongue-thrust therapy, articulation, fluency, language development, apraxia therapy, and autism-aware support. For those needing additional evaluation: screenings and assessments help to determine appropriate treatment plans — and existing evaluation information from other sources may also be used where applicable.
Therapy is offered in weekly 30-minute sessions (25 minutes of therapy plus 5 minutes of parent consultation), allowing parents to stay involved and learn supportive activities to reinforce progress at home. The practice also offers a five-week tongue-thrust therapy program (short 5–15 minute sessions), intended to correct tongue posture during swallow, which otherwise can interfere with dental alignment if left untreated.
Utah Pediatric Speech welcomes families for a free phone consultation — a helpful first step for parents concerned about their child’s communication development.
