Services
Evaluation
After filling out a few forms, a client/caregiver interview will be conducted, then formal/informal assessment in order to find both strengths and weaknesses in the areas of speech, language, and cognition.
*If you have had an evaluation in the last 6-12 months from another provider, an evaluation may not be necessary.
Therapy
Our therapy sessions are highly individualized to each client’s interests while using evidence-based treatment strategies to compensate and rehabilitate lost or impaired skills. In our experience, Serene Speech Therapy believes that treatment is most effective in the client’s natural environment due to increased likelihood of carryover outside of therapy, making online speech therapy, or teletherapy, a wonderful setting for therapy.
