Do you accept insurance?
Building Up Words is a private-pay practice. Superbills may be provided for families who would like to seek out-of-network reimbursement from their insurance provider. We are also an approved TEFA vendor, allowing eligible families to use TEFA funds toward services.
How do I know if my child needs speech therapy?
If you have concerns about your child's speech, language, or overall communication development, a complimentary consultation is a great place to start. We'll discuss your concerns and determine whether an evaluation is recommended.
What areas do you specialize in?
Services may address speech sound development, receptive and expressive language, early communication, AAC, and social communication. Building Up Words has a special interest in supporting autistic children, Gestalt Language Processors (GLPs), and AAC users.
Do you offer parent consultations without ongoing therapy?
Yes. Parents can schedule consultations for individualized education, strategies, and guidance related to their child's communication—even if their child is not receiving ongoing therapy with Building Up Words.
Do you provide consultations for other professionals?
Yes. Professional consultations are available for SLPs, BCBAs, educators, ABA teams, and other professionals looking for support with communication, AAC, GLP, or interdisciplinary collaboration.
