Services
​
Speech therapy services include consultation, evaluation and treatment for communication difficulties. A brief description of this process:
​
1. Consultation - We will discuss the types of supports you are looking for and I will share more about my services and book an initial visit and/or evaluation based on the needs described.
​
2. Evaluation - Includes a detailed intake and records review, an in-depth assessment of the communication areas in question, and a written report with an information/planning session scheduled afterward as needed.
​
3. Treatment - Here is where we dive into addressing the communication goals identified in the speech evaluation. Treatment session length and frequency will be scheduled based on the individual client's needs. ​
