Frequently asked questions
At what age can speech therapy start?
From very early stages, even before the age of 2, if warning signs in language development are detected. Early intervention has a significantly greater impact on outcomes.
Is speech therapy covered by mutual health insurance?
It depends on the mutual insurance and the conditions of the contract. Check our agreements section or contact us to verify your insurance coverage.
Do you work in coordination with the patient's neuropsychologist or psychologist?
