Social Skills Groups & Speech Therapy in South Jersey
For Big Kids & Teens
Speech Clarity | Apraxia | Reading | Spelling | Friendships | Bullying
When your child or teen is bright, but friendships, speech, or reading feel harder than they should.
We make it all make sense — by addressing what’s happening beneath the surface, we replace confusion with clarity and help them move forward with confidence.
Because the right approach makes all the difference.
Who We Help Most
-
Are they struggling to make or keep friends? Do they feel lonely, left out, misunderstood, or bullied?
We make social skills make sense — teaching teens how to start conversations, read social cues, build real friendships, and handle teasing or conflict with confidence.
We offer structured PEERS® Social Skills Groups, individualized speech therapy for social communication, and relaxed Game Nights — a supportive, less-structured space where tweens and teens can connect, feel understood, and build real friendships.
-
Are they bright and capable — but reading, spelling, or even learning letters still feels harder than it should?
Whether your child is struggling with early letter recognition, sounding out words, spelling patterns, or signs of dyslexia (diagnosed or not), we look beneath the surface to understand why literacy feels stuck.
We strengthen the skills that make reading work — so words become clearer, spelling makes more sense, and school feels less frustrating and more manageable.
-
Do you understand them, but others don’t?
Are they getting frustrated or starting to avoid talking?
As specialists in speech clarity — and Childhood Apraxia of Speech — we determine the source of the problem and how best to fix it.
Explore speech therapy for children who are hard to understand.
-
Are they still not talking?
Do they have fewer words or talk less than others their age?
We’ll help them build strong communication skills and show you how to do it at home during everyday activities like meals & bathtime.
Why Families Throughout South Jersey & Philadelphia Choose Us
Pediatric Speech Therapy & Social Skills Groups: In-Person and via Teletherapy in NJ, PA & GA
How do I know if my child needs speech therapy?
It’s a good idea to reach out if your child isn’t meeting communication milestones, struggles to be understood, has difficulty expressing their ideas, is falling behind in school, avoids conversations, or has trouble making and keeping friends.
At the end of the day, waiting has never helped a struggling child. So, start with a free Discovery Call… Our speech-language pathologist will help you sort it all out and guide you through the next steps.
Do you work with kids who talk, but can’t make friends?
Absolutely! Many children and teens speak clearly but struggle with conversations and social cues — critical skills for making friends and standing up to bullies.
Our PEERS Social Skills Groups for Teens and individual speech therapy for social communication, social-executive functions and pragmatic language teach the dominant social language™ of the area so they can build meaningful relationships.
