When Chase began speech/language therapy he was using single words to express what he wanted and needed, but it was difficult for others to understand him. Following play-based therapy integrating language facilitation techniques, modeling, and targeting words that were motivating for Chase to say (semantically potent words), he is now able to share what he wants and needs, ask questions, answer questions, ask for help, and label common objects and actions. He also uses 2-4 word phrases to express himself with all of his early developing sounds! It is a joy to see Chase's confidence soar as he shares his needs and ideas with his loved ones! His smile lights up the room!

We are so proud of you, Chase! Keep up the hard work!
