FAQs
Answers to Common Questions:
-
CloudSpeech provides specialized speech therapy for children ages 5 and up with /R/ errors, lisps, and childhood apraxia of speech (CAS). These are the speech sound challenges that often persist after years of therapy elsewhere. Because they respond best to frequent, focused practice, we offer sessions two to three times a week, including The CloudSpeech Intensive.
-
Evaluations start at $310. Therapy sessions are $125 each, paid as you go. The CloudSpeech Intensive is $1,200 for 12 sessions over one month, which comes to $100 per session. We'll talk through insurance, Medicaid, TEFA, and Step Up options at your free Welcome Visit.

The CloudSpeech Intensive is 12 focused sessions in one month, three times a week. It's built for motor-based speech sound disorders like persistent /R/, lisps, and CAS. More practice per week means faster progress, stronger retention, and better carryover into everyday speech. The CloudSpeech Intensive is prepaid at $1,200, which is $100 per session and saves you $300 compared to pay-as-you-go. Because the schedule is the program, missed sessions aren't made up, except for true emergencies. If your family needs more flexibility, pay-as-you-go sessions once or twice a week may be the better fit.

Yes. Research comparing online and in-person speech therapy for school-age children has found similar outcomes, and we've seen it ourselves with families since 2018. In our experience, teletherapy works best for children ages 5 and up, who can engage fully on screen. That's why it fits so well with the kids we focus on: /R/, lisps, and childhood apraxia of speech (CAS). Therapy at home also removes the drive and the waiting room, so families can attend more often, even several days a week, which is what speech sound disorders need.

CloudSpeech is based in Austin, Texas, and provides virtual speech therapy to children in Texas, California, Washington, New York, and Florida. Christina Burnham, MS, CCC-SLP, is licensed in all five states. We also offer American /R/ coaching for international kids and teens.
-
CloudSpeech is primarily a private-pay practice. Sessions are billed through secure autopay, and families receive a monthly superbill for self-paid sessions so they can request out-of-network reimbursement from their insurance. We also accept Texas Education Freedom Accounts (TEFA) funds, Step Up For Students scholarship funds in Florida, and a limited number of insurance and Medicaid plans in Texas and California. Ask about your options at your free Welcome Visit.
-
All sessions are 30 minutes, one-on-one. Thirty minutes is long enough for focused, high-repetition practice and short enough to hold a child's attention from start to finish.

Every family starts with a free Welcome Visit. It begins with a parent consultation to talk through your child's needs, followed by a short screening with your child and a follow-up visit, where we decide together whether CloudSpeech is the right fit. There's no pressure and no rush. If we move forward, your child completes an evaluation, which includes diagnostic therapy trials, a written report, and an individualized treatment plan. Then you choose between pay-as-you-go sessions or The CloudSpeech Intensive.
