Rethinking Speech Sound Disorders in Children:
From Speech Motor Synergies to Treatment Efficiency

Two days workshop with Dr. Aravind Namasivayam (University of Toronto) and co-host Dr. Anita McAllister (Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm), in late-summer Copenhagen

Children with speech sound disorders are often assessed and treated through auditory-perceptual and phonological frameworks. While clinically useful, these approaches may overlook the speech motor foundations that shape how children actually produce speech.

This two-day workshop invites clinicians to rethink pediatric SSD assessment and intervention through a speech motor and synergy-informed lens. Day 1 examines the limits of transcription-based interpretation and introduces synergy-based assessment. Day 2 translates the research into practical decisions about triage, target selection, motor learning, and service-delivery efficiency.
