Here are signs that your child may benefit from a speech evaluation. If any of these sound familiar, trust your gut.
Your child replaces sounds (says "wabbit" for "rabbit" or "tat" for "cat").
People outside your family have trouble understanding your child.
Your child gets upset when they can't be understood or avoids talking.
By age 4, most kids should be understood by strangers about 75% of the time. If not, it's worth looking into.
Getting started is simple. We walk you through every step.
Tell us about your child. We listen, answer your questions, and let you know if an evaluation makes sense.
Our therapist assesses your child's speech sounds through play-based activities. You stay in the room the whole time.
We create a therapy plan that targets the specific sounds your child needs help with. You'll know exactly what we're working on and why.
Your child works with a caring therapist while you learn exercises to practice at home. You're part of the team.
We track your child's progress and share updates with you regularly. Most families hear a clear difference within the first few months.

Articulation therapy helps your child say sounds the right way. The sooner you start, the faster your child can be understood by everyone around them.
Articulation therapy helps your child learn to make speech sounds the right way. Your therapist uses fun, play-based activities to teach your child where to put their tongue, lips, and jaw to say sounds clearly. It's the most common type of speech therapy for kids.
Most kids can say all speech sounds clearly by age 7-8. But some sounds should come much earlier. For example, your child should say "p," "b," and "m" by age 3. If your child is hard to understand at age 4 or older, it's a good idea to get an evaluation.
Every child is different. Some kids need just a few months. Others may need longer. Your therapist will give you a realistic timeline after the evaluation. Your therapist will give you a realistic picture based on your child's specific needs. We track progress so you always know how things are going.
We accept most major insurance plans including Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, Tricare, and United Healthcare. We'll verify your benefits for free before your first visit so you know exactly what's covered.
Yes, and we encourage it. We want you to see what your child is working on. We'll teach you exercises to practice at home, which helps your child make faster progress. You're an important part of the team.

Yes. Without treatment, articulation errors can affect your child's reading, spelling, social confidence, and performance in school. Kids who struggle to be understood often pull back from talking, which can hold them back socially and academically. Early therapy gives your child the best chance to succeed.
It depends on your child's age. If your child is over 4 and still hard to understand, waiting usually means the patterns get more ingrained and harder to fix. There's no harm in getting an evaluation — it either confirms they're on track or identifies what needs help.
