Our Services
Speech-Language Evaluations and Therapy
- We provide comprehensive speech/language evaluations to determine your child's speech and language needs. A treatment plan with suggested goals and objectives will be developed, as well as recommendations for frequency and duration of therapy visits.
- We also provide individual speech-language therapy. Parent participation is highly encouraged and homework is typically assigned to assist with carryover of skills in the home environment.
Telehealth
- We are able to provide speech therapy visits via telehealth. This can be a great option for families on neighbor islands.
- HMSA Online Care is an option for HMSA members.
Insurance or Private Pay
We work with several insurance companies, including Tricare, HMSA, HMAA, UHA, and United Healthcare. Please inquire for pricing, if interested in becoming a private pay client.
