Directors: Joan Kwiatkowski, MA and Lawrence D. Shriberg, PhD
Phonology Clinic website: http://www.waisman.wisc.edu/phonology/
The Phonology Clinic provides speech therapy services for preschool and school–age children. Younger children may have severely reduced speech intelligibility due to speech–sound deletions and substitutions; older children may have unusual error patterns or persistent speech sound distortions. Individualized treatment programs are based on the child's communication profile, which includes the results of a comprehensive phonetic/phonologic/prosodic analysis and information on cognitive, psycholinguistic, language comprehension, language production, oral-motor, and psychosocial development.
