Screenings
Our speech and language screenings are used to identify potential deficits in your child's skills. After the screening, the speech therapist will review the results with you and provide recommendations. If the information gathered from the screening warrants a formal evaluation, the evaluation process will be further discussed. If no additional assessments are needed and you wish to start therapy for your child, sessions will be scheduled and therapy will begin.

Therapy
Before therapy sessions begin, a therapy plan will be created and reviewed with parents. Session length and frequency is decided based on the individual child's needs. The duration of a session is typically 30 or 45 minutes in length. The suggested frequency of sessions will be determined based on the child's current needs. We strive to make each and every therapy session fun, engaging, and as beneficial to the child and family as we possibly can. If you are interested in direct therapy but don't live locally, we also offer teletherapy services for those families living in the state of Michigan.

Consultative Services &
Parent Coaching
If direct therapy isn't the route you want to go but you know your child could use some extra practice, Bagwell Speech Therapy offers parent coaching/ consultative services. These services teach parents and caregivers how to work with their child at home using home programs and researched backed therapy methods, with the goal to train parents on how to work on target skills at home with the support and guidance of a skilled therapist.
​
Evaluations
We provide comprehensive speech and language evaluations to help better understand your child's specific areas of need. These evaluations are used to diagnose delays and/or disorders in various areas of your child's speech and language including: articulation skills, phonological skills, receptive language, expressive language, and pragmatic language. Following the evaluation, you will receive a written evaluation report. All of this information will be personally reviewed with the parents. Parents/family members play a huge role in a child's success, therefore there will be many opportunities to collaborate with the speech therapist in the development of the therapy plan and targeted goals.
