SPEECH LANGUAGE THERAPY
Our experience reaches beyond traditional speech therapy with a wide variety of complex communication disorders in children with cleft and craniofacial conditions led to a masterful understanding of the direct connection between learning disabilities, hearing impairment and speech and language disorders.

FEEDING THERAPY
At least 1 in 37 children under the age of 5 are diagnosed with a pediatric feeding
disorder in the U.S. alone*. Each child's path to improving and developing healthy eating habits is unique and must be treated as such. IGNITE can help identify a process that works best for your family.
