Why The Speech Method?
Communication Matters!
💬 Communication is connected to how children understand the world, express their needs, build relationships, participate in play, and later develop important learning skills.
💪 Strong speech and language skills support reading, early literacy, following directions, classroom participation, asking and answering questions, social interaction, confidence, and everyday independence.
🌟 When parents learn how to support communication early, everyday moments become powerful opportunities for growth.
Strong speech and language skills support:
🔹Reading and early literacy
🔹Following directions
🔹Learning in the classroom
🔹Asking and answering questions
🔹Social interaction
🔹Play skills
🔹Confidence
🔹Emotional regulation
🔹Everyday independence
The Speech Method was created to help parents support these skills early, in the moments that already fill their day.
The Cost of Waiting can Feel Heavy
Private speech and language services can be a meaningful investment, but they can also become expensive quickly.
Depending on the provider, location, session length, and insurance coverage, private speech therapy may cost anywhere from about $50 to $175 per session*, and speech-language evaluations may range from approximately $175 to $600*.
For a family attending weekly speech therapy for 12 weeks, therapy alone could cost roughly $600 to $2,100*, not including the cost of an evaluation. If therapy is recommended twice per week, that cost can increase significantly.
The Speech Method is currently $297 and includes lifetime access to course content, downloadable guides, example activities, video summaries, community support, and direct access to ask Brad, SLP, two personalized questions.
For families who are not sure where to start, The Speech Method gives you structured, professional guidance at a fraction of what many families may spend on private evaluation and therapy.
Why Parent Strategies Matter!
Parents and caregivers are with their children during the moments that matter most.
That is why parent education matters.
When you learn how to model language, expand your child’s words, offer choices, pause and wait, repeat key vocabulary, and build communication into routines, you are creating more opportunities for your child to learn and practice.
Language learning happens all day long: while eating breakfast, putting on shoes, reading a book, riding in the car, playing with blocks, taking a bath, or getting ready for bed.
Small, consistent changes in the way you interact with your child can make a huge impact in their communication development!
Disclaimer
The Speech Method is an educational program and is not a substitute for a speech-language evaluation, diagnosis, or individualized therapy.
If your child has a diagnosed speech or language disorder, is losing skills, is very difficult to understand, is not meeting expected milestones, or if you have concerns about their communication, we recommend checking in with your pediatrician and a licensed speech-language pathologist.
The Speech Method is here to help parents learn strategies they can use daily to support communication development, whether they are waiting for services, watching their child’s development, or simply wanting to be more intentional at home.
