Literacy Support at Thrive Therapy
Helping Children, Youth and Adults Build Strong Foundations in Reading and Writing
​​
At Thrive Therapy, we know that literacy is more than just reading words on a page—it's the foundation for learning, communication, and confidence. If you or your child is struggling with reading, writing, or understanding language, our speech-language pathologists (SLPs) are here to help.
We provide evidence-based, individualized literacy support for children who need extra help learning to read, write, spell, and understand text.
What is Literacy Support?
Who May Benefit from Literacy Support:
How Thrive Therapy Can Help
Our Speech-Language Pathologists are trained in language and literacy development. We provide:
​
-
Individualized assessments to identify strengths and needs
-
Targeted intervention using evidence-based methods (e.g., Orton-Gillingham approach, Structured Literacy)
-
Support for students with dyslexia and language-based learning disabilities
-
Collaborative plans involving parents, teachers, and other professionals
-
Progress monitoring to track success and adjust goals
​
Speech Therapists are uniquely qualified to support literacy because they understand the critical connection between oral language and reading/writing skills. Many children with speech or language difficulties are at risk for reading challenges—and early support can make a lasting impact.
​
​We make learning engaging, motivating, and matched to your child’s unique pace.
