Clinical Services Support Learning

De LaSalle Academy offers clinical services in counseling and speech language therapy to children with learning challenges.

Services include evaluation, consultation, and treatment. We evaluate to determine the specific challenges. We consult with families, teachers and outside providers to integrate diagnostic findings. We then establish an appropriate intervention plan while continuously exploring different strategies and reviewing student progress. Each child requires a different key to unlock the potential that exists inside.
