Counseling office

Parents make an appointment for the IEPSP Counseling office by telephone. When coming to the Counseling office, parents must bring health card, birth certificate, and discharge papers from maternity hospital, and their child’s previous medical documentation, if such exists. Counseling office has a team of experts: speech pathologist, teacher of the deaf, psychologist, developmental neuropsychiatrist and, according to need, neurophysiologist. Counseling office activities are carried out in compliance with standardized procedures. During the sixty-minute checkup and observation, early diagnosis is made, and according to need additional diagnostic procedures are introduced (bacteriological findings, biochemical findings, EEG maps at task, food intolerance test, peptiduria test etc). Once an early diagnosis is made, initial plan of audiolinguistic treatment (ALT) is established, and therapist in charge is assigned. According to the results of audiolinguistic treatment, a therapist can make a control appointment for the correction of ALT, additional diagnostics or final control before discharge.
