Consultation
Is speech therapy right for my child?
A 15 minute free consultation gives you the opportunity to get your questions answered and share why you are seeking out speech therapy!

Evaluations
Evaluations offer an opportunity to identify strengths and challenges, which will guide the therapeutic process. During the evaluation, building a connection with your child is a priority- to get a true look at their interests, strengths and support needs!
Comprehensive evaluations may include:
• Parent interview/questionnaires
• Review of past assessment/IEP/Treatment Plan
• Speech/Language Sample Collection & Analysis
• Home video review (if provided)
• Informal and formal measures (standardized assessments are only used if appropriate)
A written evaluation report will be shared and reviewed with you to create a plan for therapy services.
