What we do? How can we help your child?
Screening
A screening is an informal brief (20 to 30 minutes) assessment to analyze your child's speech and language skills to determine a need for a full evaluation and/or speech therapy. A screening outcome will indicate one of three results: (1) recommendation of full evaluation, (2) monitoring of your child's development, (3) functioning within normal limits.
Evaluation
A comprehensive speech/language evaluation (45 to 90 minutes) assesses specific areas based on screening results or expressed concerns. Testing will compare your child's skills to others of the same age. The evaluation consists of articulation, phonology, expressive, and receptive language skills.
Treatment
Speech Therapy (treatment) sessions are guided by long- and short-term goals based upon the assessment results. Our services are provided in the client's natural environment (home therapy, daycare or private school). Therapy is usually scheduled for one visit a week for a 3 to 6 month period per insurance authorizations.
What Clients Say
"Having a loved one with a newly discovered diagnosis can be a struggle. Understanding what everything means and what options are available is overwhelming. I’m so glad Chiquita was able to help me find ways to help my older loved one in a comfortable and loving environment."
Loryn S.
Chiquita worked with my child virtually for 6 months. Virtual therapy was something new and I was very apprehensive because I was unsure if there would be a real connection or any actual treatment taking place. Not only was there a connection, it was almost instantaneous. My son look forward his sessions. They were interactive and very well planned out. She was engaging and always prepared. She provided great resources and homework to continue working on even after the sessions ended! Ms. Chiquita was a jewel and I’m grateful we got to work with her.
