Evaluation

Ms. Rodriguez provides evaluation services to children, teenagers, and adults. The evaluation may occur over one or two sessions and culminates in a written report and collaborative conference to discuss the evaluation and best steps to take for therapy, as needed.

Evaluations typically include:

• Collection and analysis of speech samples, in a variety of communication contexts
• Pertinent case history information obtained from previous records and client and/or parent interview
• A written report detailing the findings of each measure and recommendations for treatment for communication needs.

Consultation

Consultations include the gathering of previous assessments and other relevant information regarding the client. Analysis of this information will determine the best approach to meeting the communication and learning needs of the client. Treatment goals, Individual Education Plans (I.E.P.) and prior diagnoses are reviewed and analyzed to create the best course of action for the client.

Therapy

Ms. Rodriguez provides individual fluency therapy customized to the needs of each client. After one to two sessions of thorough evaluation, therapy is typically scheduled. Each session draws from a holistic approach that incorporates the latest knowledge, research, and evidence-based practices.

Families and other professionals of young children are included in each decision process and participate in teaching moments after each session in order to foster generalization of techniques to the home.

Adult clients target communication as well as empowerment, self-acceptance, and overall quality of life. Intensive adult therapy allows each client to embrace communicative style and move forward in personal goals and relationships.
