SERVICES OFFERED
Free Initial Consultation
Potential clients (or their parents/guardians)
meet with Jessica to discuss their needs and how Jessica Washer Speech Therapy
can help them.
30 minute or 1 hour therapy session
Clients will receive individual,
personalized therapy based around mutually agreed upon goals. Practice
exercises may be assigned to be completed before the next session in order to
assist in therapy generalization and continuity of treatment.
Assessment
Clients will be assessed using a
variety of informal and formal assessment techniques in order to get the most
accurate picture of their current speech and language capabilities. While the
assessment process typically takes approximately 1 hour, it may take up to 3 hours
and will require parent/guardian participation. We can also review any speech
assessment that is less than 3 years old to begin therapy.
General Appointment Information
Appointment frequencies will be
based upon the specific needs and schedules of each individual client. Each
therapy session will be provided by a state licensed and ASHA (American Speech
Language Hearing Association) certified Speech Language Pathologist. Sessions
can be provided with siblings and parents in attendance in order to train
family members on how to continue to help at home or in one-on-one settings.
Jessica offers parent guidance and training with every therapy session so that
parents can support their children outside of the therapy setting. Practice
exercises to be completed before the next therapy session may be provided to
clients in order to help therapy generalization. Online or printed resources
will be given to clients on an individualized basis to access at any time.
