Many people often like to wait and see. While this is sometimes the best approach, It’s important to know the red flags (and green flags) of speech/language development so parents can make their own decisions about that’s right for their family. Book a complimentary consultation if you’re interested in talking about risk factors or what to know more about speech therapy in general.

Not at this time, but I will give superbills to anyone seeking their own out-of-network reimbursement. Being private pay also allows me to design a treatment plan that is best for the client, not the insurance company.

With any free service, there are trade-offs. Services in the schools are almost always in groups with children of varying disorders. As such, progress tends to be slow. In private practice, sessions are 1:1 and 100% tailored to the client. The in-home model also allows for more family involvement and greater carryover of skills.

This depends on the type of delay and the age of the client. I do recommend that parents observe at least 10 minutes of the session to encourage carryover of skills throughout the week.

In general, progress is specific to every client and the best estimates come after a full evaluation. However, people generally ‘start to notice’ around the 6-week mark.

I mainly treat children, but also treat adults who stutter.

Typically, 15 months when a child is identified as a ‘late talker’. These sessions focus heavily on parent training.
