Assessments: 

For clients who are new to speech/language therapy, a formal and comprehensive evaluation is recommended. Creative Speech Therapy NYC completes a comprehensive evaluation including standardized and non-standardized tests. A full report is provided following the evaluation which contains assessment results, suggested goals/objectives, and duration/length of sessions.

For clients with a diagnosis or history of treatment, Creative Speech Therapy NYC starts with an informal assessment of speech, language, and oral motor functioning in order to develop appropriate goals for therapy.  This includes a consult as well.
