Speech Therapy for Charlotte Families
Charlotte sits in Mecklenburg County, in the Charlotte metro area. Our clinic at 19901 W Catawba Ave Ste 104, Cornelius, NC 28031 is 19 miles from Charlotte — about 27 min by car.
Charlotte families see us in person in Cornelius, with virtual sessions and parent coaching available when a clinic visit doesn't fit the week.
Whether your child is a toddler at home or a student in Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, we build speech therapy goals around your family's real routines and give you home-program strategies you can share with your child's teachers.
Optional timing: some families schedule a more frequent block of speech therapy around school breaks, when schedules open up — others keep the same rhythm all year. See the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools calendar.

What Speech Therapy Focuses On
Speech therapy helps children improve communication by strengthening clarity, articulation, language, and confidence. It also supports social interaction, expressive language, receptive understanding, and voice or fluency challenges, so children communicate effectively at home, in school, and in the community.
It is also called speech-language pathology, SLP services, communication therapy, articulation therapy, or language support. Each term describes the same focus: building a child's ability to understand and be understood.
Therapy addresses speech sound disorders, articulation delays, and phonological difficulties. Language therapy builds vocabulary, grammar, and sentence structure; fluency therapy supports children who stutter; voice therapy improves pitch, volume, and resonance. At Integrative, our speech therapists are also trained myofunctional therapists, so care also addresses oral motor skills, tongue posture, and swallowing.
Sessions are play-based and engaging, using games, stories, and activities. Parent involvement ensures children practice skills outside therapy, reinforcing progress at home and school.

What Families Say About Speech Therapy
“Samantha was a God send to us! My daughter has oral ties and Samantha and her team navigated us through helping my daughter become an efficient eater after her tie releases. We love IWT and how incredibly amazing and helpful they are!!”
“I am so grateful that I found Samantha and integrative wellness. She was so helpful and gave me tons of info regarding my daughter’s lip and tongue tie. We followed up with her after getting them both released and she once again gave me loads of information and explained things so I could understand them and put them into practice to help my daughter heal. My son had a frenectomy in 2019 and I wish we would’ve known about IWT at the time. My daughter’s recovery has been a lot smoother than my son’s and I owe a lot of that to Samantha and IWT. I wouldn’t take my children anywhere else!!”
“Samantha has been a great help with our daughter in her recovery from her tongue and lip ties. She is extremely knowledgeable on the subject and she has given us the guidance to help our daughter heal correctly so that she may have the best possible outcome from her surgery!”
