Our Therapy Services
SPEECH & LANGUAGE SCREENINGS & CONSULTATIONS
Speech, language and feeding screenings and consultations are provided to clients/caregivers in the form of informal assessments, observations and 'sit-down' discussions. Written reports are available upon request prior to the consult. Periodic consultations are recommended to clients to provide timely feedback on therapy objectives and to track client progress. These consults are free of charge and may be scheduled as either on-site visits or over the telephone or email.
RECOMMENDATIONS & REFERRALS
By maintaining a strong professional relationship with a variety of disciplines outside the practice, resources to meet our client's individual needs are always close at hand. A standard session is 45 minutes but can vary 30 or 60 minutes in length, depending on client's needs and preferences. Either individual or group sessions can be scheduled.
