PMC ALL STAR Spotlight: Adelyn!

Adelyn started speech therapy at PMC when she was 2. When Adelyn started with us, she demonstrated frequent frustration because she was unable to communicate her wants and needs. She also had trouble following directions, answering who, what and where questions and sitting at the table to complete tasks. Adelyn has been coming to see us for 2 years and has made AMAZING progress! She is now consistently not only using words but forming sentences to easily express her wants and needs. Adelyn's frustration has greatly decreased due to her ability to communicate. She is able to sit at the table for an entire speech session. Adelyn is also able to follow directions and answer various who, what and where questions. She has an amazing family who has helped her so much along the way!


We are so proud of you Adelyn!
