How long will speech therapy take?
A. Prior to establishing personal contact with the client it is impossible to provide much more than an educated guess, based upon past therapeutic experience with others similarly situated, in answer to this question. Indeed, this query can be difficult to answer honestly and accurately even after therapy has begun. Numerous important variables such as consistency, motivation, and structural (physical) limitations and/or anomalies can inhibit or enhance the rate of progress. Home practice is yet another variable which can determine the length and success of a therapy program.
