Speech Therapy Process

The Therapy Services Director will conduct a 30 minute consultation with the family in order to get to know them better and identify the client’s strengths and needs. The family and Director will discuss potential areas for growth and will discuss the best fit for therapy. The Director will then send an intake form to the family that is to be completed before services begin. If you would like to set up the consultation please fill out this form.

During the first sessions, the therapist will conduct an assessment with the client to identify specific goals and objectives.

Information from the consultation and the assessment will be used to identify goals and objectives for each client.

Therapy includes interventions that address the identified goals and objectives. The ultimate goal is for generalization of skills outside of therapy.

Ongoing evaluation will be documented through weekly data collection and discussion with parents. Reassessment will also be conducted when appropriate.
