Frequently Asked Questions

What does a speech therapist do for a child with delayed speech?

A speech therapist first assesses exactly where a child's communication is relative to developmental expectations — across understanding, expression, speech clarity, and social communication. Nidhi then designs an individualized, play-based therapy plan that targets the specific gaps, using evidence-based techniques to build vocabulary, sentence structure, and clear speech step by step.

How are articulation and phonological disorders treated?

For articulation difficulties, Nidhi works on individual speech sounds — first in isolation, then in words, sentences, and conversation — using modelling, repetition, and engaging practice activities. For phonological disorders, where a child uses simplified sound patterns, therapy targets the underlying pattern so improvements generalise across many words at once rather than one sound at a time.

How does speech therapy support a child with autism?

Communication support for children with autism goes beyond speech sounds — it includes building functional communication, joint attention, vocabulary, and social interaction skills. Nidhi tailors intervention to each child's developmental profile and coordinates with the wider multidisciplinary team at Cadabam's CDC so that communication goals are reinforced across occupational therapy, behavioral support, and special education sessions.

What role do parents play in therapy?

Family-centered care is central to Nidhi's approach. She partners with parents and caregivers to build practical, everyday strategies — communication games, modelling techniques, and home practice activities woven into daily routines — so that progress made at the center continues at home. The consistent practice families provide between sessions is what accelerates a child's communication growth.

Which languages does Nidhi consult in?

Nidhi is fluent in Kannada, Hindi, and English, allowing her to work comfortably with families across diverse linguistic backgrounds and to support children growing up in bilingual and multilingual homes.
