We operate as an independent business out of two clinic spaces. To respect the owners of each space, we ask that you only book assessments at the location where you intend to receive therapy.
The first appointment you book will need to be an “Assessment” visit with Emily. The only exception to this is if you have had an assessment completed by a Speech Language Pathologist within the last 6 months. In this case, please get in touch and we can talk about options!
Please note that infant feeding therapy is currently only offered at the Guelph Location.
FAQs
do i need a referral?
You do not! On occasion insurance companies do require a physician’s note to be refunded for services but we do not require this on our end.
Can a grandparent bring my child?
Of course! If you provide consent for your clinician to share information with grandparents, we are happy to work with them and have them attend!
what is your cancellation policy?
We understand that things come up and cancellations happen. We kindly request 24 hours notice of a cancellation to avoid all fees. Same day cancellations are charged a $20 fee. Any appointment cancelled within 4 hours of the start of that appointment will be billed as a no-show at 50% of the cost of the visit. Second offence no-shows are billed at 100%. We appreciate your understand as we want to be able to offer the spot to another client if you are not able to attend.
are the services covered by insurance?
In the majority of cases, yes! Best to check into your coverage before booking so that you know your individualized plan. Infant feeding support is billed under speech language pathology services Please note that we do not direct bill at this time.
Can i bring my other children?
Yes! We don’t mind one bit if siblings attend the sessions. You can decide if it is best for them to be in the therapy room or to wait outside.
Do i need to be present?
Whatever works best for you and your child. Some children work best when their parent is outside of the room, some prefer them to be in the room. We do ask that you stay within the clinic during the session.
if my child was assessed at school, do they need to be assessed again?
If the assessment is less than 6 months old, then no! We just need a copy of the assessment to set some goals!
