What is a Speech Sound Disorder?
A speech sound disorder is a type of communication disorder that causes individuals to have a lot of difficulty saying words and sounds correctly. This type of disorder is most common among children, but it can also impact adults. For instance, an adult may present with a lisp, which is difficulty producing the “s” and “z” sounds (and other related sounds) with accuracy. Many times the speech for “s” and “z” sounds “slushy” when diagnosed with a “lisp.”
Speech sound production is centered on the ability to accurately articulate sounds. When an individual is unable to accurately produce these sounds, producing Intelligible language becomes challenging.

It’s always emotionally tough to learn your child isn’t hitting expected milestones. Luckily, we had a really great experience with our speech therapist, Andrea. My son is an extremely shy kid and she quickly got him to warm up to her in their sessions at his in-home daycare. We clearly observed his progress at home, and were impressed at how well her lessons were sticking with him. I also appreciated the fact that she was an excellent communicator and would always keep me posted on how he was doing, and what letters or phrases he had mastered saying. Andrea was kind, flexible, and was exactly who I (and my son) needed at a time when he needed speech therapy, and I needed reassurance that he was going to be OK. Highly recommend Therapy Care.
