At Leaping Literacy, we have extensive training in dyslexia therapy and provide evidence-based interventions to help students overcome language-based learning difficulties.
Visit the Academic Language Therapy Association (ALTA) www.altaread.org for more information on dyslexia therapy, certification, and qualified therapists.
The first step is scheduling a comprehensive assessment (initial appointment) covering all areas of reading, including phonemic awareness, phonics, alphabetic principles, spelling, oral reading fluency, and comprehension.
To schedule the initial appointment, contact us by email reading@leapingliteracytherapy.com or scroll down to schedule a FREE consultation phone call.
Our comprehensive assessment provides valuable insights that can be shared with educators and others supporting the child’s progress.
The Learning Plan is created from the comprehensive assessment. The Learning Plan serves as a structured guide, outlining specific, measurable goals for dyslexia intervention. It is designed to target the student’s individual needs, ensuring focused and effective support in areas that require improvement.
The plan is continuously monitored and adjusted to ensure progress, fostering the development of essential reading skills and overall literacy proficiency.
We offer a range of flexible scheduling and options, including one-on-one in-person sessions and virtual therapy to fit your busy life. Sessions per week can be scheduled to fit your need and finances.
Each session is scheduled to be 45-60 minutes based on student need. Adjustments to the individual sessions are flexible and adjusted as needed.
Dyslexia therapy integrates visual, auditory, and motor processing to enhance understanding of the English language. Each lesson targets foundational skills like phonemic awareness and phonics, as well as fluency, comprehension, vocabulary, writing, and spelling, providing a comprehensive approach to literacy development.
Dyslexia therapy empowers confidence by addressing the specific challenges individuals with dyslexia face, teaching them to view their condition in a positive light, and providing them with the tools and strategies they need to succeed in various aspects of life.
Dyslexia therapy is often most effective when started early. Identifying and addressing dyslexia in childhood can prevent years of struggle and frustration and enable individuals to build a strong foundation for future learning.
The roundtable featured K-12 educators from around Alabama in the CALT program and gave them an opportunity to speak about their experiences supporting students with dyslexia in their respective schools and positive outcomes they’ve had as a result of the CALT program. Senator Britt and Senator Cassidy are passionate about how they can support teachers and students at the federal level.
U.S. Senator Katie Britt visited the University of Alabama, her alma mater, last week to participate in a roundtable discussion about dyslexia education and the school’s Certified Academic Language Therapist program. She was joined by U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Dr. Laura Cassidy, a Dyslexia Resource Center board member, and participants from the university’s CALT (Certified Academic Language Therapist) program.
“This program not only helps students, but helps other teachers understand the tools and innovation that are out there and the science that supports it, so that they can take what they’ve learned back to their communities and change the trajectory of children’s lives,” Sen. Britt said.
