Pediatric speech evaluation
History, a look at how the child talks in the room, and only the tests that change the plan. You leave knowing what we will work on next Tuesday.
Sessions
Therapy that sits beside the sentence, not above it
Lisa names the gap in the first evaluation, then keeps the later hours small enough that a Charlestown week can actually hold them.
What the hour actually holds
You ring from Russell Street or leave a number online. Lisa calls back, asks what the child does at dinner, and books the evaluation — not a mystery intake packet.
Articulation & phonology
The sound that dropped out, the cluster that never formed, the lisp that followed the front teeth. Play first; homework that fits a school night.
Language & late talkers
Words, two-word strings, following directions, and the questions a child should start firing at the adult in the kitchen.
Fluency & school carryover
Stuttering work that does not sand the personality off the voice, plus a short note a teacher can use before the next circle time.
How an hour starts
From the stoop to the first sound
1
Leave digits
The callback form or +1 (617) 669-9904. Lisa rings you, not a call center.
2
Name the worry
What the child does at dinner, at school, on the stoop. One story is enough to book the eval.
3
Sit the hour
68 Russell St. Parent in the room or downstairs — you choose before you arrive.
4
Take the map home
A short plan, a drill that fits a weeknight, a date for the next hour.
Leave ten digits for the Charlestown desk
Tell Lisa which hour you need. She calls back from Russell Street.
