For children, play-based assessment is common. The SLP will explain the results and recommend a treatment plan with specific goals and session frequency. Therapy sessions typically last 30 to 60 minutes, one to three times per week. Sessions involve structured activities designed to build specific skills, with home practice assignments between sessions.
For children: see an SLP if your child is not babbling by 12 months, not using single words by 18 months, not combining words by age two, is difficult to understand compared to peers, stutters, has difficulty following directions, or shows limited social communication skills.

Late talking, difficulty forming words, and limited vocabulary may indicate a speech or language delay. Early intervention from a speech therapist can make a significant difference in a child development.
Stuttering affects fluency and can impact confidence and daily communication. Speech therapists use evidence-based fluency techniques that help both children and adults speak more smoothly.
Difficulty swallowing after stroke, surgery, or neurological conditions is both uncomfortable and dangerous. Speech therapists evaluate swallowing function and recommend exercises and diet modifications.
Hoarseness, vocal fatigue, and voice loss from overuse, nodules, or other causes benefit from voice therapy. Speech therapists teach techniques to use your voice more efficiently and heal damaged vocal tissue.

Atrium is larger and runs the region's only Level I trauma center (Carolinas Medical Center). Novant tends to have a reputation for smaller, community-focused facilities. Both provide high-quality care, but your insurance network is the most practical deciding factor.
Most insurance plans cover speech therapy with a prescription or referral. Coverage is typically subject to visit limits (20-60 sessions per year) or dollar caps. Medicare covers outpatient speech therapy without a hard cap. Medicaid covers speech therapy for children under EPSDT with no visit limit. School-based speech therapy through an IEP is provided at no cost to families. For private therapy, verify your plan's visit limits, pre-authorization requirements, and whether the SLP is in-network.
