services and getting started

Questions?

  • A: You can pay online with a credit card or HSA/FSA card.

    Cash or check is expected at the end of each session.

    A receipt will be provided once payment is received.

  • A: Services are provided in your home—on the floor, at the table, or even in a tent—wherever your child is most comfortable.

    Services may also take place at your child’s preschool, daycare, or private school.

    Teletherapy is available across Kansas and Missouri.

  • A: We are a private pay practice and do not bill insurance.

    You may choose to submit for out-of-network reimbursement through your insurance provider.

    Payment is due on the day of service. An invoice will be provided following each session.

  • A: Yes! Additional services with a private provider can be helpful for supporting and building on the skills your child is working on at school.

    Private therapy allows for individualized attention and can help reinforce progress across settings.

  • A: Yes! Even if errors are considered developmentally appropriate, many families choose to begin working on these sounds earlier.

    As a private provider, we can support your child whenever they are ready to learn and practice new sounds.

  • A: Your child’s therapist will help guide you in identifying specific skills to practice at home.

    One of the easiest ways to support speech and language development is through books. Books don’t always have to be read—you can:

    • describe pictures

    • play “I spy”

    • count items

    • take turns with pages

    • connect the story to your child’s life

    These simple interactions can make a big impact.

  • A: Parent involvement is an important part of your child’s progress. You’re with your child every day, and using simple strategies at home can make a big difference.

    That said, you do not need to be present for every therapy session. Each session ends with a brief update so you know what was worked on and how to support your child at home.

  • A: The length of therapy varies for each child and depends on their individual needs and goals.

    Progress is monitored closely during each session, and families receive regular updates—typically every 10 sessions—through progress reports.

    Once your child has met their goals and is using age-appropriate speech and language skills, they will be ready to be discharged from services.
