Our Therapy Services

Have you noticed your child isn’t progressing the way you expected them to? Has your pediatrician suggested you take your child to see a speech therapist? If so, this may seem like an alarming experience. Naturally, you want the best for your child. The good news though, is that with speech therapy, your child’s speech or language issues can be managed.

Whether you’ve been struggling with a speech disorder your entire life, or you or a loved one have developed a new one, it can be a frustrating and stressful experience. However, speech therapy for adults can help. We’ll work with you or your loved one to manage your condition or recover your speech and language abilities.

If your child faces challenges with movement, sensory responses, or everyday routines, it can be a difficult experience for families. At The Voz Institute, our pediatric occupational therapy services are tailored to help children build the skills they need to thrive. We focus on your child’s individual strengths and needs while offering guidance to parents and caregivers for continued support at home.

If your child is having difficulty with movement, balance, or coordination, pediatric physical therapy can help them build the skills they need to move with confidence. Through personalized, play-based care, our therapists support your child’s strength, mobility, and overall development—helping them participate more fully in everyday activities.

Thumb sucking comes naturally to children. It’s the same instinct that compels a child to breastfeed when they’re too young to be taught such things. However, eventually they need to be weaned from that habit. If your child is 6 years old and still sucks their thumb or fingers, the Thumbs Up! program can help them break the habit and enjoy healthier oral development.

If you or your child have not yet received a diagnosis, the first step is a comprehensive therapy screening and evaluation. During this session, your therapist will spend time getting to know you or your child, observing communication, motor, feeding, and sensory skills to better understand any areas of concern. From there, you’ll receive a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and goals.

As your child’s primary caregiver, you play an essential role in their development. Many skills—like communication, movement, and daily routines—are learned through everyday interactions. Our coaching approach gives you the tools and strategies to recognize challenges early and support your child’s progress at home.

We live in an increasingly digital world. And with that comes a shift in the way we provide healthcare, including speech therapy services. Maybe you have a hectic schedule that makes it difficult to come to our office. Maybe you live too far to make the trip convenient. Or maybe you have difficulty physically getting here. Whatever the reason, speech teletherapy can help.

Children from all backgrounds and ethnicities may benefit from the expertise of a speech-language pathologist (SLP). Culturally responsive speech and language evaluations are essential, and SLPs play a crucial role in providing them. To make culturally sensitive speech therapy more accessible, The Voz Institute offers contract services to schools throughout the DC area.

Most children learn to speak one word at a time. But that’s not always the case. If your child is a gestalt language processor, they’ll learn language quite a bit differently. This isn’t considered to be a speech or language disorder, but gestalt language processors often benefit from extra support as they learn language. Gestalt language therapy can help.
