These children may not have babbled as infants, and may drop sounds off words, leave whole parts out of words or substitute sounds in words. This makes it difficult for others to understand them, leading to frustration and possible social isolation. Speech sound delays and disorders should be treated as early as possible, as there is a great deal of research to suggest that children with speech sound difficulties are at a significantly higher risk of having literacy and reading difficulties once they start school.<\/p>\n Capable Kids can provide therapy using the following techniques:<\/p>\n – Phonological therapy approaches<\/p>\n – Articulation therapy approaches<\/p>\n – PROMPT<\/p>\n – Cued articulation<\/p>\n – Nuffield Centre Dyspraxia Programme<\/p>\n – REST<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”4.16″ min_height=”120px” height_last_edited=”off|desktop” max_height=”100px” overflow-x=”hidden” overflow-y=”hidden” custom_margin=”10px||||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||1px|||” hover_transition_duration=”0ms” global_colors_info=”{}” max_height__hover=”100%” max_height__hover_enabled=”on|desktop”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”Fredoka One||||||||” text_text_color=”#ffffff” text_font_size=”27px” text_line_height=”37px” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Indie Flower||||||||” header_2_text_align=”center” header_2_text_color=”#3a0cf2″ header_2_font_size=”40px” background_color=”#8cc63e” overflow-x=”hidden” overflow-y=”hidden” custom_padding=”36px|20px|36px|20px|true|true” border_color_top=”#ffc300″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Stuttering Therapy<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=”#8cc63e” divider_style=”dashed” divider_position=”center” divider_weight=”3px” _builder_version=”4.16″ transform_rotate=”0deg|0deg|270deg” z_index=”-99″ width=”80%” max_width=”100%” module_alignment=”center” height=”261px” max_height=”1000px” custom_margin=”11px|||||” custom_padding=”||0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ header_font=”||||||||” header_3_font=”Fredoka One||||||||” header_3_text_color=”#3a0cf2″ header_3_font_size=”19px” header_3_line_height=”1.2em” min_height=”38px” custom_margin=”130px||30px||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”200px||” custom_margin_phone=”150px||” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Stuttering, often referred to as stammering or fluency disorder, is a motor speech problem where a person may repeat single sounds (the b-b-b-boat) or whole words (I want want want that toy) in their conversations <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Stuttering is also characterised by prolongations of sounds (I took too long) or blocking, where the person speaking can\u2019t get anything out.
