In this episode, speech-language pathologists Allison Feldman, MS, CCC-SLP, and Jennifer Rose, MS, CCC-SLP, give helpful information for families seeking a speech and language evaluation. Jennifer and Allison take us through the entire evaluation process from where to start, to what the evaluation may entail and what to expect after an evaluation. During the episode, we discuss how a child qualifies for therapy based on their evaluation and why this may differ in private practice compared to public schools or early intervention services. Jennifer and Allison also give information on what parents may look for when deciding whether to get an evaluation, what advice they give parents who hear “wait and see” from their pediatrician and touch on the benefits of an evaluation and intervention for children labeled “late talkers.”
Allison Feldman, MS, CCC-SLP, and Jennifer Rose, MS, CCC-SLP, are licensed and certified speech-language pathologists and co-owners of The Speech Garden, a private practice with two locations in Houston, Texas, and one in Denver, Colorado.
