SERVICES
Please note, for all services, I am only able to accept private pay at this time.
EVALUATION
An initial assessment may include checklists/rating scales, observation, language sample, speech/language screener tools, and sometimes standardized testing. Following the initial evaluation, results and recommendations will be discussed with the family. If your child has recently been evaluated by a speech-language pathologist, it is helpful for me to be able to review those results, as well as any assessments completed by an audiologist, psychologist, or other disciplines.
Maybe you have concerns about your child and had them evaluated previously, and were told they did not qualify for services. Often times, school systems and insurance companies have rigid criteria that a child must meet in order receive therapy. If your child doesn't qualify for services, they may still benefit from therapy!
I am happy to discuss your concerns or situation during a free 15 minute consultation call.
THERAPY
Therapy will occur in-home or virtually, usually 1 time per week for 50 minutes.
While therapy sessions will typically take place in your home, I may be able to provide therapy at a convenient community location or at your child’s daycare or pre-school, depending on their policies. Areas currently served include Encinitas, Leucadia, La Costa, and San Marcos.
I can provide tele-therapy if that is the preferred option for your family, or a mix of in-person and virtual.
Your child may already be receiving speech-language services as part of their Individualized Education Plan. Many families choose to supplement their child’s school speech services with private therapy. That way, their child can receive more one-on-one, individualized therapy, and there is consistent communication with the therapist to discuss home-program, goals, and progress!
COACHING / CONSULTING
Coaching/ consulting sessions are available to caregivers and professionals who are looking to support a GLP. I can assist in determining what stage of gestalt development a child may be in, and identifying strategies that may be helpful in supporting a child’s language development, including the use of AAC. Sessions can be done on a weekly, bi-weekly, or as-needed basis.
