Frequently Asked Questions
What ages can you consult from?
Speech therapists can work with individuals of all ages, starting from infancy through adulthood and into senior years. Early intervention is crucial, as speech therapy can aid infants and toddlers experiencing delays in speech or language development. For preschool and school-aged children, therapists focus on a range of issues, including articulation problems, language comprehension, and social communication skills. In adults, speech therapy can address speech and language difficulties resulting from medical conditions such as strokes, traumatic brain injuries, or neurological disorders. Furthermore, seniors may benefit from therapy aimed at improving cognitive-communication skills and swallowing abilities. This broad range emphasizes the versatility of speech therapy and its vital role in supporting communication across the lifespan.
Do you accept insurance?
Insurance coverage for speech therapy can vary significantly based on the insurance provider, the type of policy, and individual circumstances. Many health insurance plans, including those offered through Medicaid and Medicare, provide coverage for speech therapy if it is deemed medically necessary. This typically encompasses a range of conditions, including developmental delays, traumatic brain injuries, and disorders resulting from strokes. However, policy specifics may include stipulations such as prior authorization requirements, session limits, or diagnoses that qualify for coverage. It is important for patients and their families to carefully review their insurance policy and speak with their provider to fully understand the intricacies of their coverage, as well as any possible out-of-pocket expenses associated with speech therapy services.

Can you Diagnose my child with SPD or Autism?
Therapists, particularly those with specialized training in child development and assessment, can play a significant role in identifying Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). While they may not provide formal medical diagnoses, they can conduct comprehensive evaluations and assessments to identify signs and symptoms associated with these conditions. Through direct observation, caregiver interviews, and standardized assessments, therapists can determine whether a child exhibits behaviors consistent with SPD or ASD. If necessary, they can then refer the child to a qualified healthcare professional, such as a pediatrician or psychologist, for a formal diagnosis. Early identification is crucial, as it allows for timely intervention, which can greatly improve outcomes for children facing these challenges.
