Finding the proper support for your child's communication development can be a challenge, especially when you're trying to balance a busy family schedule. If you've been searching for speech therapy in Phoenix, you're aware that there are options, but how do you find a program that is effective, convenient, and led by experts?

Arizona Sunrays is proud to introduce our premier speech therapy program, now offered at our Phoenix location. With a 35-year legacy of helping children grow their confidence and skills, we bring a unique family-first environment to speech and language services. Our program is designed to be effective, convenient, and led by experts, making it stand out from other options in Phoenix.

What is Pediatric Speech Therapy and Who Can Benefit?

Speech therapy is a specialized service that helps children and teens (ages 1 to 18) develop stronger voices, more transparent communication, and lasting confidence.

Our licensed speech-language pathologists (SLPs) are trained to evaluate and treat a wide range of communication challenges. Your child may benefit from speech therapy if they have difficulty with:

  • Articulation
  • Developmental language delays
  • Stuttering or fluency
  • Social communication 
  • Apraxia of speech
  • Communication challenges related to hearing loss

Our goal is simple: to help every child grow their voice.
