Find answers to common questions about virtual speech therapy services.
Getting started begins with an initial consultation to discuss your child's needs and determine whether services are a good fit. From there, an individualized therapy plan is developed based on clinical recommendations.
All new clients begin with a 30-minute virtual consultation to ensure a strong therapeutic fit and clarify next steps. This session provides dedicated time to discuss your concerns, review relevant background information, and determine whether a comprehensive evaluation or therapy is most appropriate.
The consultation fee is $50. If your child has not had a comprehensive evaluation within the past year, the fee may be applied toward a full evaluation. If therapy begins without the need for additional assessment, the fee may be applied toward your first session.
Session fees typically range between $85–$155, depending on the type and length of service provided. Comprehensive evaluations typically range between $250–$400, depending on the scope of assessment needed. A detailed breakdown of recommended services and associated fees will be reviewed prior to beginning services. Families will also receive a Good Faith Estimate outlining the anticipated cost of care in accordance with federal guidelines.

Virtual evaluations are conducted through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. Standardized assessments are administered using digital tools, and parents are guided through any hands-on components.

Parent coaching is a collaborative session focused on equipping caregivers with practical strategies to support their child's communication at home. Rather than direct therapy with the child, these sessions provide guidance, education, and actionable tools tailored to your family's goals. Parent coaching can be used on its own or alongside therapy services to strengthen progress and carryover.
