Frequently Asked Questions About Speech Therapy

Have questions about speech therapy? Spectrum Speech Therapy's licensed speech-language pathologists in Lutherville, MD are here to help. Below are answers to some of the most common questions we receive from families in the Baltimore area.

Does speech therapy work online? Yes — telehealth speech therapy is highly effective for many clients. Our therapists are experienced in providing virtual sessions that are engaging and productive for both children and adults.

What is the difference between speech therapy and language therapy? Speech therapy focuses on how sounds are produced (articulation, fluency, voice), while language therapy focuses on understanding and expressing language. Both are provided by our licensed SLPs.

Can my child receive both school-based and private therapy? Absolutely. School-based therapy focuses on educational goals, while private therapy at Spectrum Speech Therapy can address a broader range of goals in a more intensive setting.
