Question 1

What should I expect during the evaluation?

Accepted Answer

A speech and language evaluation includes standardized testing, observation through play or conversation, and a caregiver interview, completed in your home. Initial results are discussed the same day and a written report follows.

Question 2

How often will my child have speech therapy sessions?

Accepted Answer

Every child moves through therapy at their own pace. The overall length depends largely on the skills your child is developing. Home practice and family involvement are two of the best indicators of speedy progress, so we are committed to collaborative family training that helps children move through speech therapy as efficiently as possible.

Question 3

Do parents participate in therapy?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Whenever possible, parents and caregivers are highly encouraged to join sessions so families can build a rich language learning environment all day, every day.

Question 4

How long will my child need speech therapy?

Accepted Answer

Every child progresses at their own rate. Length depends on the skills being developed, home practice, and family involvement.

Question 5

Do you accept insurance?

Accepted Answer

Curious Cubs does not bill insurance directly. We provide a detailed monthly superbill you can submit to your insurance company for possible out of network reimbursement. Check your policy for coverage and restrictions.

Question 6

Can you go to my child's school?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We will gladly schedule a classroom observation. Seeing a child communicate and interact in their school environment is helpful for many reasons, including collaborating with teachers and staff, offering recommendations that support communication in the classroom and on the playground, and shaping speech and language goals around real life settings. Alternatively, we can provide regular speech therapy sessions in private schools in Bozeman with director approval. Typically we can work with the school director and teacher to find a convenient time during the school day to provide one on one therapy.

Question 7

What is your cancellation policy?

If you need to cancel your scheduled appointment for any reason, please provide at least 24 hours notice by phone or email. Appointments cancelled less than 24 hours before the scheduled appointment will be charged in full. No show appointments will be charged in full. Emergencies will be considered on an individual basis.
