building YOURÂ capacity to strengthen communication and connection from the comfort of your own home
Complimentary Consultation
Are you wondering if your child needs speech therapy or other support? Are you seeking parent/caregiver coaching or group classes? We offer a 20-minute consultation with you over the phone or through Google Meet to discuss your child and family's concerns or needs. The information we discuss will be used to determine if an initial visit or formal evaluation is recommended. Capacity Speech Therapy is committed to finding you the right fit for services, which means that we can provide you with additional resources or referrals to other practices as needed.
Our specialty is serving young children from ages 4 and under and their families in areas that are most important to them. See below for more information on how we can help.
