Frequently asked questions
How do I know if my child needs speech or language therapy?
If your child is hard to understand, has trouble expressing their needs, seems delayed in understanding language, or is not reaching expected communication milestones, a speech and language evaluation can help clarify what’s going on. BK Speechies assesses expressive language, receptive language, articulation, and developmental concerns to create a plan tailored to your child’s needs.
What is feeding therapy and how can it help my child?
Feeding therapy helps children who have difficulty eating safely, comfortably, or consistently. At BK Speechies, feeding support may look at oral motor skills, sensory needs, mealtime behaviors, swallowing safety, and family routines so therapy can support safer and more positive mealtimes.
What happens during a speech, language, or feeding evaluation?
Evaluations are typically 60-90 minutes and help identify your child’s needs, strengths, and therapy goals. After the evaluation, you’ll receive a detailed treatment plan with recommendations for next steps and therapy sessions.
Do you offer therapy at home or in an office?
Yes. BK Speechies provides therapy in the home, in the community, and at the Staten Island office, with services for families across Staten Island and South Brooklyn.
