Frequently Asked Questions
Do you take insurance?
We are a private pay practice, and we’ve chosen this model so we can truly prioritize your child’s individual needs. Insurance companies often place limitations on services—such as who qualifies, how often sessions can occur, or what goals can be targeted—which can sometimes get in the way of providing the kind of care we believe children deserve.
By working outside of those restrictions, we’re able to create a therapy plan that is fully personalized, flexible, and responsive to your child’s progress, without being bound by insurance guidelines.
We absolutely understand that cost is an important factor for families. To help with this, we can provide you with a detailed receipt (called a “superbill”) that you can submit to your insurance company to see if they offer any reimbursement.
How do I know if my child needs speech therapy?
If your child has difficulty speaking clearly, understanding language, or expressing themselves, it may be time to consult a speech-language pathologist. Common signs include limited vocabulary, frustration during communication, or not meeting speech and language milestones for their age.
How can I support my child’s progress at home?
Parent involvement is crucial! I’ll provide strategies, activities, and exercises you can do at home to reinforce what your child is learning in therapy. Consistent practice in a familiar environment can make a big difference.
How long will my child need speech therapy?
The duration of therapy varies depending on your child’s specific needs and progress. Some children may benefit from a few months of therapy, while others might require ongoing support. We’ll regularly evaluate progress to ensure therapy remains effective.
Will my child “outgrow” their speech or language delay/disorder?
While some children may naturally catch up to their peers, many benefit from early intervention to ensure their speech and language skills develop properly. Delays or disorders can sometimes persist without support, potentially impacting academic success, social relationships, and confidence. Speech therapy provides targeted strategies and practice to address these challenges, helping your child communicate effectively and thrive. Early support can make a significant difference in your child’s progress and overall development.
