WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO KNOW?
If you don't see your question answered below, do not hesitate to contact us directly.
DO YOU PROVIDE IN PERSON EVALUATIONS OR THERAPY?
Enhanced Speech Therapy primarily provides services at the child's daycare/preschool or at home in the metro Atlanta area. However, we do provide teletherapy evaluations and treatments to families living outside metro Atlanta.
DO I NEED A REFERRAL TO BOOK A THERAPIST?
Not at all. Enhanced Speech recommend referrals from your primary physician if you are planning to submit a claim to your insurance, but no referral is needed to see our therapists. Simply visit our contact page to book an appointment.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SCHOOL SPEECH THERAPY AND PRIVATE PRACTICE SPEECH THERAPY?
In order to receive speech/language therapy in their public school, the Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) must document that the child's speech/language impairment is adversely impacting their academics and access to education in school. Many children with speech/language disorders do not qualify for school services. If the child does qualify for services in the school district, they will be seen in a group setting.
​
Private speech therapy is typically one-on-one, giving the child the undivided attention of the SLP and the opportunity for more practice of their target skill(s).
​
Enhanced Speech not only helps the child master their goals as quickly as possible, but we also prioritize the inclusion of parents and family members in the treatment process with text/email updates and videos of therapy to help promote family awareness and carryover.
​
Enhanced Speech recognizes that speech therapy is a significant investment and strives to maximize the return on investment for each family. We can work with the family to help make it accessible.
IF I HAVE MY CHILD EVALUATED DO I HAVE TO GET THERAPY?
No. You are never under any obligation with Enhanced Speech for services. Following an initial evaluation we will make therapy recommendations. It will be up to each family to decide whether or not they wish to pursue speech/language therapy.
DOES ENHANCED SPEECH ACCEPT INSURANCE?
Enhanced Speech does not currently accept insurance.However, we are happy to provide a Superbill of services for you to submit to your insurance company or FSA for reimbursement.
HOW OFTEN AND FOR HOW LONG WILL MY CHILD NEED SPEECH THERAPY?
We will decide that together. The frequency and duration of therapy are determined by the extent of the child's delay/disorder, their age and attention span, and what works with each family's schedule. You can expect your child to need Speech Therapy once or twice week for about a school year.
