What does Brooklyn Learning have in common with a bowl full of Omega-6? We do the brain good; we’re pretty fun too.
One of the qualities setting Brooklyn Learning apart is our energetic professional staff. We know how to relate to children from babies to adolescents. They feel comfortable interacting in an environment that’s more fun and creative than stodgy and boring. Forget out-of-date speech language therapy! What worked for grandma and grandpa isn’t necessarily going to work these days. We are up-to-date with the ever changing field of speech language therapy, relying on updated research to provide top-notch grade A, grass-fed, organic, educational and therapeutic services. OK we’re just kidding about the grass-fed organic part. But the rest of our ingredients are the real deal. We put the fun back in learning for parents and kiddos. Craig’s spacious welcoming environment offers a space for parents to listen in on the session or zen out in his garden with a refreshing drink; the non-alcoholic kind of course.
We believe in your child. We will find your child’s potential. Kind of like how Michelangelo discovered David in a block of marble. We create and tailor therapy and remediation designed specifically for your child. Part of that means working with families and schools, to construct a support system for your son or daughter. We are 100% fully committed to helping kids and parents overcome challenges. Before you know it, those obstacles will look less like Mount Everest and more like a little bump on the road to educational success.
So now you’re thinking wow, this sounds great! But how did Craig get involved with speech therapy? What is it about this Pied Piper of speech therapy that makes him so special? Well, I’ll tell you: unlike many other speech language pathologists, he was trained from an interdisciplinary and neuropsychological background. His language pathology and neuropsychological background is strongly linked with many other professions, such as special education, educational psychology, and literacy remediation/tutoring. Dolphins may have their sonar and dogs may have barking, but our ability to use and understand linguistics makes us unique from all other species on the planet. Not even our closest relatives, the monkey, have anything on us- linguistically speaking that is. We utilize language to read, write, and communicate; it’s the foundation for academic, social, and emotional learning.
Which brings me to my next point. Breakdowns in language learning affect a child’s academics and communication, significantly interfering with the child’s relationships and learning. For this reason, it’s important to handle any speech/language issue as soon as your child is demonstrating difficulties so they can lead a happier, healthier life. Et voila! That’s where Brooklyn Learning comes in.
