Our Services
Ponderosa Speech & Language is dedicated to providing personalized, patient-centered, comprehensive evaluations and treatments with extended appointment times (45-60 minutes).
Speech Sounds
We treat speech sound disorders related to articulation and phonology (error patterns, such as “tat” for “cat” or “dough” for “go”). Whether your child is struggling with specific sounds like "s" or “r”, or showing consistent sound patterns that impact their intelligibility , we provide targeted, evidence-based support.
Dyslexia
We offer dyslexia services through a comprehensive language and literacy evaluation and customized intervention plan. No big-box, one-size-fits all: we customize your assessment and therapy to be highly specific to your child’s area of needs and match the appropriate intervention approach using evidenced-based methodologies that are aligned with Structured Literacy & the Science of Reading.
Early Literacy Skills & Phonics
Our therapy supports early literacy by targeting foundational skills like phonological awareness (e.g., segmenting and manipulating sounds in words, rhyming), sentence structure, and comprehension.
School-Age Academic Intervention
