Young Talkers has served the speech, language, and feeding therapy needs of children and adults on the Grand Strand for over 14 years. The clinic describes a family-based approach: most therapy rooms have observation rooms with one-way mirrors or a camera system so parents can watch their child's session, and some families sit in the treatment room to take part directly. Speech-language pathologists give parents specific homework assignments each week based on what was covered in the session, and parents discuss the session with the therapist at the end. Sessions run 30 or 60 minutes depending on the child's needs, and weekly frequency is set the same way. Evaluations typically last 1 to 1.5 hours. The speech-language pathologist interviews parents with specific questions to identify which areas need assessment, which can include receptive and expressive language, articulation and phonological skills, phonological awareness, fluency, social pragmatics, and oral motor skills. Standardized evaluations are used, and a formal report states all results of testing, observations, and recommendations. Young Talkers holds a rating of 4.40 based on 55 reviews, reflecting a solid reputation among the customers it has served and a steady record of repeat and referred customers. For families on the Grand Strand seeking speech, language, or feeding therapy for a child or an adult, Young Talkers brings more than 14 years of local clinical experience to that work.
