Communication therapy focuses on improving a child's speech, language, and social communication skills. Our experienced therapists utilize evidence-based techniques to enhance communication abilities and foster meaningful interactions.

“I am very grateful that I decided to join the Airplane Spoon family! From the moment I started working with them, they made me feel like a part of their family. They are kind, creative, perceptive, caring, and empathetic, and I feel extremely blessed to have them in our lives. They have helped my daughter’s development in a compassionate and holistic way, and for that, I am forever grateful.”

The Airplane Spoon Model

Our mission is to impact the lives of the children, families, team members, and communities we serve by empowering them to truly connect and create meaningful relationships.

Parent Coaching Integration

Integrating parent coaching into therapy is a valuable approach that empowers parents to actively participate in their child's development. By providing parents with guidance, strategies, and resources, therapists enable them to reinforce therapeutic goals at home, creating a more supportive and consistent learning environment. 

The Dual-Home Model

In-home speech therapy session focused on natural interactions and real-life communication skills

Our Dual-Home Model means that sessions are divided between your home and The Airplane Spoon House. 

We have found this model to be extraordinarily beneficial for more targeted and generalized progress in both the child and parents. 

By having sessions at The Airplane Spoon location and the home one week a month, children are able to bring their learned skills into their natural environment and home routines.

Our Trust-Based Approach

A trust-based approach to developing relationships in therapy emphasizes building a strong foundation of mutual trust, understanding, and collaboration between the child, family, and therapist. Unlike a traditional clinical model centered on compliance, which may prioritize completion of trials and not take into factor a child’s cues of readiness, a trust-based approach values the child’s autonomy and active participation in decision-making.
