We don’t maintain a referal network (yet). The best source is to use the American Speech and Hearing Association (ASHA) referral site. http://www.asha.org/proserv/

You can type in your zip and child’s age. There are quite a few speech-language pathologist in your area. You’ll just have to contact them to find out if they use our program.

Good luck.

There are my “tips” and “tricks” available for the R sound.
I take a more wholistic approach to treating it, moving from one sound (within the sound) at a time.

The complete strategy is in The Entire World of R Book of Elicitation Techniques.

Have you talked with a speech-language pathologist about your problems?

I found one website that mentioned lowering the jaw and just moving back the tounge tip from the ‘l’ position. I think this may have helped, but is there any other advice for an adult looking to solve R articulation?

Funny but within 3 minutes of getting your post I got this e-mail from another SLP:

“…I want to let you know that although I’ve only used one (advanced Screening Form) so far, it has already helped me to see where I need to go with one particular 15 year-old, and has helped her to see that her problem isn’t as big as she thought. Way cool !!!!!!”

The single best step is to do a complete evaluation using the Entire World of R Advanced Screening. This will really help you determine exactly which /r/ sounds are deficient. You might find that all [or] combinations are lacking, but you also might find some positions and contexts which are more successfully produced.

Good luck.

I am feeling extremely overwhelmed, especially since this young lady has been in therapy for so many years, and seems to be getting “burned out” on the whole idea! Any suggestions for where to start and possibly some new and more excited ways to treat her?
Thank you!
