Using a month-by-month developmental framework, Apraxia Uncovered describes how to nurture sound development in children who have great difficulty learning to make sounds and speech. Pam Marshalla integrates information from articulation, phonology, oral-motor, and infant vocal development into a comprehensive plan of treatment. Apraxia Uncovered will help you understand how to help the child make a wider variety of consonants, vowels, syllables and words, and to become more intelligible. Techniques are appropriate for children of all ages.
NB. This book was created as a companion reference for the Apraxia Uncovered audio seminar on three CDs. For professionals with experience in this subject, the book by itself can serve as a valuable resource. If you are interested in the CDs, please contact us using the Questions? button above.

"I have found this book so helpful for my understanding of speech development. Marshalla really explains phonological development and how our understanding of the natural progression can help us with so many clients when we overlay the process (stretched out or compressed) over our clients’ progress. Love this book."
