Consultation
Not sure if you, your child, or a loved one would benefit from speech therapy? Want to know more about my approach? Schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation to learn more.
Screening
A screening is a quick (up to 30 minutes) and informal way to get to know the Client better. It helps me determine which evaluation measures to conduct. A screening will not yield a diagnosis.
Evaluation
An evaluation is a very thorough process consisting of a case history, Client (or parent) interview, and one or more assessment measures. It can take up to two hours and may be broken into more than one session.
Therapy
I create an individualized treatment plan for each Client to ensure the best outcomes and offer 30 to 60 minute therapy sessions once or twice a week. This depends on the individuals’ needs, goals, and schedule.
Parent/Caregiver Training
The skills learned in therapy sessions are generalized much quicker when they are practiced at home. I believe in a person- and family-centered approach, which is why parent and caregiver training is such an important part of my sessions.
IEP Review & Collaboration
IEPs can be a daunting and stressful process. I will help review your child’s IEP draft and collaborate with their school staff on goal areas, as well as potentially attend the IEP meeting with you.
