Word Play Speech Therapy

Word Play Speech Therapy

Word Play Speech Therapy is a private therapy company serving St. Charles county, the greater St. Louis area and virtually throughout Missouri.

We offer child-led, play-based speech and language services for children of all neurotypes.

Word Play Speech Therapy specializes in speech sound disorders including apraxia and phonological delay, late talkers, expressive and receptive language delay, gestalt language processing, alternative/augmentative communication (AAC) and stuttering.

We believe in the power of collaboration in order to carry over skills from therapy into a child's everyday life.
