Systemized Speech and Language Therapy

Dimensions Therapy Center offers Systemized Speech and Language Therapy developed by the Director, Valerie Herskowitz, M.A. CCC. Ms. Herskowitz has created this highly structured speech and language program in order to maximize each individual’s potential for progress.

The following is how the program is implemented:
Initially, the client receives an evaluation and consultation. At that time, an individualized Systemized Speech and Language Therapy Profile is developed. From that profile, the client then enters our Track Teaching™ program at a particular stage within the curriculum. Each step along the way, specific goals are achieved and the client advances.

Social and Pragmatic Therapy


Many of our students have difficulty interacting appropriately with others. For these individuals, Dimensions offers our Social/Pragmatic Therapy Program.

Pragmatic/Social Therapy is designed to increase abilities in the following areas:

  1. Interactive play with peers
  2. Showing interest in others
  3. Verbal conversation with peers and others
  4. Expressive Communication using Augmentative Communication for those who are non-verbal or minimally verbal
  5. Social skills in a variety of arenas

Pragmatic/Social Therapy is implemented in 3 settings:

  1. Individually with an instructor
  2. Pragmatic Partner-in order to practice interactions with one other individual some students are paired with another student who has similar language abilities during his/her speech therapy session
  3. Pragmatic Group-Students are grouped with 2-3 other peers of similar ability for one-hour sessions. In a fun, but structured environment, the students are exposed to a variety of activities designed to increase interaction skills

The goals are based on the level of the group. Students who enter the process at the lower levels will focus on developing play skills and developing interest in others. As they progress, conversational interactions (both verbal and augmentative) are addressed. Students at the upper levels primarily work on improving social skills with peers.
