Graduating kids from therapy is our goal. It means that we did our job and the child’s concerns have been addressed. We do everything we can to achieve progress as quickly as possible. There is ongoing communication between the family and the therapist on the child’s progress. When it is agreed that the concerns have been fully addressed, it is time to graduate AND celebrate!

Our Speech Therapy treatment plans are individualized based on your child, but most children require 1-3 times per week online or in-person.  Our therapists teach the parents and the child how to carry over the exercises at home. This complements the in-clinic treatment and leads to lasting change.

The length of Speech Therapy sessions are individualized based on your child. However, sessions are typically 30-60 minutes long. The therapist will speak with the parent at the end of each session to provide an update on what was worked on during the session.

 We  offer a FREE online  Screening Tool that you can take. In just a few minutes, you can learn whether your child is developmentally on track. If you would like to speak with a therapist about your concerns, you can book a free consultation. A free consultation consists of a 15-20 minute phone call, during which you can talk with one of our therapists about your concerns without committing to a full evaluation. The therapist will ask questions about your child’s development, address any concerns you may have, and provide recommendations for your child. We also offer our FREE online tool: the Interactive Screening Tool. In just a few minutes, you can learn whether your child is developmentally on track.

We accept all major credit cards, checks, PayPal®, or cash.

An evaluation allows a speech therapist the opportunity to assess your child’s development. This assessment includes a standardized test, observation through play, medical history information, and a caregiver report. Through the evaluation, it will be determined if treatment is necessary, and an individualized treatment plan will be created for your child. Treatment at Global Speech and Rehab Services cannot be initiated unless an evaluation has been completed.

You will need to submit the report to us. Our speech pathologists will determine if the report is acceptable. If the report is deemed to be acceptable, you will not have to redo the evaluation.

Yes. Parents are a very important part of treatment at Global Speech and Rehab Services. Parents are always welcome to observe therapy, and parent education is an integral part of our treatment plans.

Home programs are provided to the parent to increase carryover in all settings and help the child become more successful in reaching their goals.
