Assessment & Therapy

An assessment is recommended for all new clients starting at Ready Set Speech. 

Erin will listen to your concerns and help you to decide if speech pathology is going to be beneficial for your child.

Assessments at Ready Set Speech always involve play. Play is essential for getting to know a child and ensuring they feel comfortable in the therapy environment.


If therapy is recommended, Erin will work with you to develop a therapy plan that is specific to your child. The type of therapy, frequency and duration of therapy is individual to each child and their family circumstances.
