Our Process
Free Consultation
Start with a free 20 minute consultation to see if my skills and teletherapy are a fit for your needs. Afterwards, we will schedule an evaluation to get started!
Intake Documents
You will fill out documents that include a consent forms and case history, so that I may have a better idea and understanding of what may be going on prior to our evaluation.
Evaluation
If your speech and language skills have not been evaluated in the past year, we will complete an evaluation to determine communication strengths and weaknesses and to identify appropriate starting goals for therapy.
Therapy Plan
A comprehensive therapy plan will be created based on the evaluation, information from your intake documents, and your concerns. The plan will include the recommended length of appointments, number of times per week and the therapy goals we will target.
Communication & Progress
We will be in constant communication about your progress and homework in between sessions. You are encouraged to ask questions and communicate with me throughout the week to increase generalization of skills.
Our Pricing and Insurance
Sierra Speech Therapy is an out-of-network provider for all insurances and all services are self-pay. However, we can provide a Superbill (a detailed, itemized receipt of services provided) that can be used to claim with your insurance. Please note that Medicaid does not allow the submission of superbills.
If you’d like to use your insurance, you will need to call your insurance to see what your out-of- network benefits are for speech therapy. I can provide you with a guide to assist you in contacting your insurance.
All payments are due at the time of service and can be paid online via debit or credit card.
