GETTING STARTED

1.

Call to schedule your first session or book a free phone consultation with one of our pediatric speech therapists. We will answer your questions and walk you through the intake process.

2.

Services will begin with an in-depth evaluation, which will reveal your child’s areas of strength and support needs. This process allows us to create an individualized plan with targeted therapy goals.

3.

Following the evaluation, we will schedule your child’s therapy sessions at a time and in the setting that works best for you! Recommended session frequency will vary and is based on your child’s goals.
