About Chicago Speech Therapy

Chicago Speech Therapy is a pediatric practice that provides speech and language services for children across Chicago and nearby suburbs. The clinic lists locations in Bucktown, Lincoln Park, Buffalo Grove, Gurnee, Northbrook, Park Ridge, and Wilmette, and describes its work as focused on helping children build stronger communication skills through individualized, evidence-based care. Services on the site include one-on-one speech therapy, comprehensive evaluations, feeding and swallowing therapy, specialized therapy for autistic children, and a therapeutic preschool and kindergarten program. Their speech therapy pages also describe support for early language delays, articulation and phonology, stuttering, childhood apraxia of speech, AAC, expressive language, receptive language, and social communication.

The practice presents its care model as child-centered, collaborative, and shaped around each child’s strengths, challenges, and goals. Chicago Speech Therapy says its therapists use comprehensive evaluations to guide personalized treatment plans, then provide engaging sessions that may combine play, structured activities, and other evidence-based techniques. Family participation is a visible part of the model, with parent education, home strategies, and ongoing progress monitoring built into care. For autistic children, the clinic describes a neurodiverse-affirming approach and notes collaboration with families and other professionals. The therapeutic preschool and kindergarten program is described as a language-focused early childhood setting led by licensed speech-language pathologists, with integrated speech therapy, occupational therapy, and behavioral support. The site also notes that families can begin with a free phone consultation and that an insurance team helps with coverage verification, pre-authorization, direct billing, and support for out-of-network benefits.
