About Speech Time, PLLC

Speech Time is a therapist-owned pediatric speech therapy practice based in Humble, Texas. Founded in 2007, the practice provides services for children from birth through age 17 and offers care in the home as well as in private school and daycare settings. The website lists Humble, Kingwood, and North Houston among its service areas. Speech Time presents its work as centered on helping children build effective communication skills while reducing the limits that can come with traditional office-based visits. The practice also emphasizes professionalism, compassion, integrity, and individualized service for children and their families.

The clinic provides speech and language evaluations and treatment plans that are tailored to each child. According to the website, initial evaluations are used to determine whether therapy is needed and generally last about one to two hours. If a child qualifies for services, the practice then requests an order from the child’s pediatrician, and re-evaluations are completed every three to six months depending on the child’s Medicaid plan. Areas addressed on the services page include expressive and receptive language, articulation, phonology, delayed speech, oral motor needs, feeding and swallowing, pragmatics, fluency, autism, Asperger’s syndrome, Down syndrome, and cerebral palsy. The practice is led by Tonya Batiste, M.ED., CCC-SLP, who is listed as Executive Director and Supervisor. Her biography notes training in Speech Pathology and Audiology and a Master of Education in Communication Sciences and Disorder, along with pediatric experience across multiple settings and ongoing professional development through trainings and seminars.
