Close Dyspraxia & Apraxia

I am the mother of a 19 yr. old son who was evaluated at the beginning of 2008. He has dyspraxia and apraxia. He is being treated by a professional speech therapist who is using a special technique that includes her touching and manipulating his mouth. I can't remember what it's called. It is beginning to work. What also is of concern to him is his rhythm as it relates to his playing the guitar. I am looking for a therapist who can help him with this. Any suggestions?

Speech Therapy Working / Worked

My son has about 10 sessions and it is beginning to work for him. We have been advised to expect about 30 sessions before we see significant progress.
