Cawn / Krantz & Associates Chicago Office

About Us
Cawn/Krantz Developmental Therapies has two locations that provide children with therapy services. In addition to our multidisciplinary children's therapy clinic located in Northbrook, Cawn/Krantz has recently opened a satelite office in Chicago located in the West Loop neighborhood. Services provided at this location include speech and language evaluations, speech and language therapy, social cognition therapy, dyads, social groups, parent coaching, and school consultations. We serve children with the following challenges:

• Articulation Disorders
• Phonological processing disorders
• Childhood apraxia of speech
• Autism spectrum disorders
• Auditory and language processing disorders
• Expressive language disorders
• Receptive language disorders (comprehension challenges)
• Social communication challenges (pragmatics)
• Fluency (stuttering)
• Selective mutism
• Language learning disabilities
• Executive functioning deficits
• Word-finding challenges

Our Chicago area speech and language service coordinator, Cortney Grove, MA CCC-SLP is a pediatric speech-language pathologist specializing in communication from birth through adolescence. Cortney participates in on-going mentoring around a DIR/Floortime model. She is currently credentialed Early Intervention Specialist in Speech/Language Pathology and is also trained in the Lidcombe Program of Early Stuttering Intervention.

We offer free developmental screenings at both our Northbrook and Chicago locations. Our screenings are provided by an ASHA certified and state licensed speech and language therapist. If you are wondering if speech therapy would help your child, please contact us today!
