Please complete the form below this section (or call, text, or email if preferred) for a free consultation to learn how speech-language therapy can help your child and when therapy is needed. Let’s determine if Spot on Speech is the spot for you!

After the consultation (if appropriate), the first session will be scheduled.

Services can be provided at any of the following locations:

1. Spot on Speech office: Individualized speech and language sessions occur in our therapy room at Spot on Speech.

2. Teletherapy: Online speech and language services provided if you live outside of our service area or are just looking for a more convenient alternative. Teletherapy is an evidence based service delivery model with similar expectations of a traditional speech and language therapy approach. A working device (ex. desktop, laptop) and good internet connection are necessary.

3. Preschool or Daycare: Does your child attend preschool or daycare during the week? On-site services are a possible option depending on location of facility. Please call or email for more information!

The initial session will be designed to build rapport with your child and gather baseline data. An initial evaluation will be conducted to develop a picture of your child’s speech and language skills.

Formal standardized tests and/or informal assessment tools such as parent questionnaires, play observation, language samples, and checklists may be utilized. Review of other information provided by parents or legal guardians such as medical records, prior evaluations, and Individual Education Plans (IEPs) will also be examined.

Following the evaluation a treatment plan will be developed tailoring to your child’s specific speech and language needs and aligning with family goals.

Length of treatment sessions will also be discussed based on the child's need. Typically, sessions will last for 60 minutes; however, 30 minute sessions are an option.

Spot on Speech is currently only accepting private pay, but a monthly superbill can be provided to you for reimbursement based on your insurance plan. We encourage all clients to contact their insurance company prior to starting services to inquire about (1) how to submit superbills for reimbursement and (2) what percentage of sessions will be reimbursed.

Please contact us for additional information or to inquire about our rates.

It is really tough to know if your little one would benefit from speech-language services. We offer a free consultation to determine whether an evaluation and services would be necessary for your child.

If you answer “yes” to any of the below questions, please reach out for a free consultation below!

Speech:

Learning the correct pronunciation and articulation of words

—Does your child have difficulty articulating specific sounds?

—Does your child change or leave out sounds?

—Does your child have difficulty being understood by others?

Fluency:

Refers to the rhythm, flow of speech

—Does your child experience the feeling of being stuck or a loss of control with sounds, words, or phrases (ex. Stuttering: m-m-m-mom, mom-mom-mom)?

Voice:

Related to vocal quality, pitch, and loudness level

—Does your child present with a hoarse, raspy vocal quality?

Language:

Receptive language refers to understanding and expressive language is the use of language in areas such as vocabulary, grammar, and sentence structure. Pragmatic language focuses on learning non-verbal and verbal social rules/skills for interacting with others.

—Does your child gesture or show things instead of using words?

—Does your child have difficulty responding to questions appropriately?

—Does your child’s vocabulary or sentences sound too young for their age?

—Does your child have difficulty starting or maintaining a conversation?

—Does your child use non-specific words (ex. stuff, thingy) or experience difficulty finding the right word to say?

—Does your child have difficulty retelling a story or talking about past or future events?

If you answered “yes” to any of the above questions, reach out for a free consultation below!

1. Family Coaching: Would you like tips/strategies for working with your child at home to support and increase communication skills? We can guide you on how to use items already in your home such as toys, puzzles, and books to target specific speech and language skills. Has your child received a recent diagnosis? We can help families have a better understanding of your child’s diagnosis and the impact on speech and language skills.

2. Individualized Education Plan (IEP) Consultation: Does your child currently have an IEP? Sometimes IEPs can be very overwhelming and confusing to parents. At Spot on Speech, we will sit down and review your child’s IEP with you, so you leave with a clear understanding of this legal document.

3. In-service Presentations: Spot on Speech offers in-service presentations to groups such as church organizations, home-schooling co-ops, parent groups, or daycare settings looking to learn more about a variety of topics in the area of speech and language (ex. What does typical speech and language development look like for children ages 2-5 and when is a referral necessary to a Speech-Language Pathologist?).
