Frequently Asked Questions
1. How do I get started with therapy?
Here are the steps to get started with therapy:
Step 1: Complete the "request a phone consultation"form below. We will contact you for a consultation when it is received.
Step 2: Complete Intake paperwork. When this paperwork is received, an evaluation date will be scheduled.

2. How do I know if my child needs an evaluation and/or therapy?
You can complete the "request a phone consultation form below" to discuss your concerns with a licensed speech- language pathologist to discuss your concerns. A free consultation consists of a 10-15 minute phone call where you can talk with one of our therapists about your concerns without committing to a full evaluation. The therapist will ask questions about your child’s development, address any concerns you may have, and provide recommendations for your child.
3. What should I expect during the evaluation?
An evaluation allows a speech therapist the opportunity to assess your child’s development. This assessment may include a standardized test, observation through play, medical history information, and/or parent report. In most cases, it includes all four. Through the evaluation, it will be determined if treatment is necessary.
