Where will you see my child?

Services are delivered at your home or your child’s daycare or school. Virtual therapy sessions are also available for families living anywhere in the state of Maryland. Initial meetings will occur with the family present, but if services will be delivered in schools or daycares, we will send a detailed report of what we worked on and how to support your child at home. Therapist-family-school collaboration is very important for success!

Do you take insurance?

We are a private pay, out-of-network provider for traditional insurance companies. We can provide your family with a monthly superbill to submit to your insurance for any reimbursement they might offer. Please contact your own insurance company to ask about requirements for receiving reimbursement should you pay out-of-pocket for services.

We also accept Maryland Medicaid. We will cover this important question during a phone intake! Please contact us for more information.

We accept FSA and HSA funds.

Does my child need a full evaluation before beginning speech therapy?

From our end, formal evaluations are not required to begin therapy with Hello Baltimore Speech and Language Services, LLC. Initial “diagnostic therapy” sessions will suffice for learning more about your child’s strengths and needs, and target areas for therapy. If you are seeking reimbursement from your insurance company utilizing superbills, it is possible that they will require test scores, therefore it is important that you contact your insurance company prior to initiating speech-language services to ask what their requirements are. If you would like additional information about evaluations, please contact us to schedule a complementary consultation.

What does speech-language therapy look like?

Developing a strong therapeutic relationship with your child and family is the first step! We target speech and language skills through play, books, activities of daily living, games, music, movement, and art. Speech-language therapy is about connection and repeated practice, so we work hard to have fun while directly targeting skills!

Hello Baltimore Speech and Language Services, LLC delivers therapy in English, Spanish, or both depending on the child’s language background. Parent training can also be delivered in either language. If your family speaks a language other than Spanish or English, we welcome you to contact us to learn about multilingual evaluations or to possibly connect with another speech-language pathologist who speaks your language in the Baltimore/DC area!

If your child uses augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), then we will incorporate that into therapy activities, as well as provide training and opportunities for caregivers to use AAC with their children.
