School-Based Speech Therapy Services in Charlotte, NC

School-Based Speech Therapy and SLP Services

Our school-based speech-language pathology services can be customized to meet your school's needs and may include: 

Comprehensive Speech and Language Evaluations

Our SLPs provide comprehensive speech-language evaluations to identify students' strengths, communication needs, and areas requiring additional support. Evaluation services may address articulation, receptive and expressive language, fluency, social communication, and other speech and language concerns.

Detailed evaluation reports can help school teams understand a student's communication needs and develop appropriate recommendations and intervention strategies.

Speech and Language Screenings

We provide speech and language screenings for students who may demonstrate concerns with communication development or academic participation.

Our screening services can help schools identify students who may benefit from a comprehensive speech-language evaluation or additional support.

Hearing Screenings

Hearing can play an important role in a student's ability to access communication and classroom instruction. We offer hearing screenings as part of school-based screening services to help identify students who may need additional follow-up.

Individualized Speech and Language Therapy

Our school-based speech therapy services are individualized to each student's communication needs and educational goals.

Our SLPs provide evidence-based intervention for areas such as:

• Articulation and speech sound disorders
• Receptive and expressive language
• Mixed receptive-expressive language disorders
• Social communication and pragmatic language
• Fluency
• Childhood apraxia of speech
• Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC)
• Communication associated with autism
• Developmental language delays
• Other speech and language needs

We collaborate with teachers, families, and educational teams to help students apply communication skills across academic and everyday environments.

Contract Speech Therapy Services for Schools

Empower Speech Therapy partners with schools that need contract speech-language pathology services without having to recruit and manage an additional full-time SLP.

Our contract SLP services may be a helpful option for:

• Public schools
• Charter schools
• Private schools
• Preschools and early childhood programs
• Specialized educational programs
• Schools experiencing SLP staffing shortages

We can work with your school to develop a service model based on your student population, scheduling needs, and available resources.

Teletherapy and Virtual Speech Therapy for Schools

When on-site services are not practical, Empower Speech Therapy can provide school-based teletherapy and virtual speech therapy services.

Our licensed SLPs can provide online speech and language therapy through secure teletherapy platforms, allowing schools to expand access to qualified speech-language pathology services.

Teletherapy may be considered for schools in North Carolina that need additional SLP coverage or have difficulty filling on-site speech-language pathology positions.

IEP and Educational Team Support

Our SLPs collaborate with IEP teams, teachers, school administrators, and families to support students' communication needs within the educational environment.

Services may include:

• IEP team participation
• Speech and language goal development
• Communication recommendations
• Consultation with teachers and educational staff
• Family consultation
