The Scottish Rite Childhood Speech & Language Center

Services We see clients between the ages of 18 months and 18 years with diagnoses including articulation disorders; autism; receptive and expressive language delays; Down syndrome; phonological awareness disorders; fluency disorders; cleft palate and language based reading disabilities.Individualized Speech Therapy Therapy is individualized in a 1:1 setting with each session usually lasting 30 minutes. Observation rooms are also available for parents and family members to observe each session. We pride ourselves in our ability to educate the parents so that the skills learned in our center are carried over into the home and school environments. Anyone can call to refer a child by calling our center directly. Our clinicians also complete screening every fall at the Cathedral; Calvert and Friends schools. This year we are working to screen approximately 200 children from the surrounding school; many of whom will later be referred to our center for therapy.
