Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I or my child could benefit from speech therapy?

Speech therapy may be beneficial if you or your child experiences difficulty with any aspect of communication, including speech clarity, language development, understanding or expressing thoughts, or voice quality. A consultation with a licensed speech-language pathologist at The Speech Path can help determine if an evaluation and therapy are appropriate.

What does the process look like?

How long are therapy sessions, and how frequent are they?

Therapy sessions typically last 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the individual’s needs and goals. The frequency of sessions is determined by the evaluation results and treatment plan and may range from once a week to multiple sessions per week.

How long does therapy typically last?
