Speech & Language Evaluations
If you are concerned about your child's speech or language development, call for a consultation to determine what type of evaluation will be most appropriate for your child. Evaluations are often covered by insurance and we direct-bill several plans: Blue Cross and Blue Shield PPO and EPO plans, Health Net PPO and Kaiser with an authorization for services. We are also vendored wtih Golden Gate Regional Center (GGRC).
Speech & Language Therapy
We provide individualized speech and language therapy services for children of all ages. Our team's skill set is diverse and we are able to treat a range of delays and disorders, such as: speech sound disorders, receptive and expressive language disorders, apraxia, auditory processing disorder, fluency disorders, autism, genetic syndromes, developmental delays, and we also work with nonverbal and minimally verbal children. Therapy is primarily 1:1 and some group therapy opportunities are available.
Speech & Language Screenings
Speech and language screenings are available both in the office and at your child's school. A typical screening lasts 15-30 minutes and the purpose of a screening is to determine if further assessment is needed. Contact us for more information about how to set up a screening for your child or for a group of children at a daycare or school.
