Questions

Speak Life LLC is a private pay therapy company. This allows us the flexibility to accommodate your schedule and offer support in the environments in which the client feels the most comfortable. For patient's with out-of-network benefits, a 'superbill' will be provided with treatment codes that may be submitted for reimbursement. Reimbursement is completely dependent on your insurance plan and not guaranteed. If you call your insurance company, you should ask about "out-of-network Speech Therapy" and what information is needed to file claims. Reimbursify is an app that can make the claim filing process simple. 

Cost for services is dependent on a variety of factors that will be assessed at the initial consult. Services can be billed for 30 minute to 1 hour long sessions and can be provided in person or via telehealth if client is deemed appropriate.  Packages of 6 sessions can be purchased at a discount and can be scheduled at a frequency to individually fit each family. Speak Life LLC is currently accepting debit and credit cards via our secure system that is HIPPA compliant.  

Developmental milestones are skills and behaviors that can be used to determine if childen are developing as expected when compared to same aged peers. Speech and langauge skills are crucial for overall development and early identification can increase a child's chance for improvement. 

Clients can range in age from birth to end of life. 

Many patients who qualify for one service also qualify for another. Speech therapists often collaborate with other medical professionals including occupational and physcial therapists and special education teachers. Consulting with other professionals is free of charge as patient progress is our top priority.

Although speech services in school settings are beneficial, outpatient services are still highly recommended. Speech services provided in the home allow for the integration of intervention strategies into the child's regular routine to make them functional and meaningful and on a one-to-one basis.

We provide services to clients in the Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, and Norfolk areas. Services can take place in your home, daycare, preschool, or in the community. 

Telehealth services are able to be provided if therapist deems the client is an appropriate fit and use would not impact treatment or progress.
