A: A bill for services can be paid

online with credit card or

HSA/FSA credit card. Payment by

cash or check are expected

immediately following the end of

the therapy session. A receipt

of payment will be sent once

payment is received.

A: Services are provided in your

home and take place on the

floor, at the table, in a tent—

wherever works best for your

child!

Services can also occur in your

child’s preschool, daycare, or

private school.

A: No. Johnson County Speech

Language Therapy services are

paid via private pay only. You may

seek reimbursement through

your insurance, but that is your

responsibility. An invoice

requiring immediate payment will

be sent the same day of the

therapy session.

A: Yes! Additional services with a

private provider is beneficial

for supporting, and further

developing, skills that are targeted

in the school setting.

A: Yes! Articulation errors that are

considered to be developmentally

appropriate are not treated by a

school SLP until these errors are no

longer appropriate based on age.

As a private provider, we can treat

these errors whenever your child

demonstrates a readiness to

learn how to correctly make the

sounds.

A: As the therapist gets to know

your child and your family, they

will help find specific areas that

you can work on at home. We

always suggest parents use books

to support all areas of speech

and language. Books don’t always

have to be read: you can use

them to describe the pictures, to

play eye-spy about what you see,

count different items on the pages,

take turns holding the book or

turning the pages, find similarities

between the book and your

child’s life—the possibilities are

endless!

A: Parent involvement in the

planning of goals and

understanding of their child’s

therapy is critical for successful

therapy. You are with your child

every day, and when you can

implement strategies in to your

every day that support your child,

then you will see measured growth

in their development. Parent

involvement does not mean you

have to be present when therapy

occurs—every session concludes

with a conversation with the

parents to let them know what

skills were targeted and what

worked well.

A: As every child is different, it is

difficult to determine the total

length of time that will be needed

for services. Every three months

families will be provided with a

progress report, which

specifically details your child’s

progress from session to session.

Our therapy process is driven by

data collected in each session—

when your child has met their goals

and their speech and language

skills are considered

developmentally appropriate, then

they will be ready to be discharged

from services.
