Speech and Language Therapy, Evaluations, and Social Learning Groups
in Florida’s Palm Beach County & Broward County areas
Speech and Language Therapy
Children whose speech and language are not developing at the same rate as other children their age may require speech or language therapy.
There are a variety of issues that can be behind speech disorders:
- Apraxia (Childhood Apraxia of Speech)
- Articulation
- Auditory Processing
- Autism Spectrum Disorders
- Comprehension
- Dysarthria
- Expressive Language Delay/Disorder
- Receptive Language Delay/Disorder
- Social Language Difficulties
At Bend Your Brain we evaluate each child to determine the reasons for the speech sound difficulties. Then, with input from the parents, we develop an individualized program.
Social Learning Groups

In Bend Your Brain Social Learning Groups, students are taught how to think socially. They learn to become good social observers, figuring out what other mean by interpreting what they say and do. They learn that their own actions affect how others think, feel and act towards them.
Students learn and practice their social skills through exercises, role-playing, and organized group activities and trips….Read more about Social Learning Groups
