JJ’s Speech and Language Lab is in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO. If you have out-of-network benefits with another insurance provider, we will be happy to provide a superbill that you can submit for possible reimbursement.

We provide services at clients’ homes, daycares, and private schools as well as virtual tele-therapy sessions when appropriate. These services can be conducted via private pay, insurance or Early Intervention. We travel to various neighborhoods of Chicago, including but not limited to West Town, Humboldt Park, Wicker Park, Roscoe Village, Lakeview, Lincoln Park, and Bucktown. Based on clinician availability and scheduling, reach out to us to determine if we are able to visit you in your neighborhood.

Evaluations are typically 60 minutes and in-person treatment sessions are typically 45-60 pending the needs of the child. Sessions are typically weekly, however, bi-weekly sessions may be an option if the therapist’s schedule allows.

Schedule an evaluation or a free 15-minute phone consultation by contacting us via phone (708-927-9878), email (jenna@jjspeechlanglab.com), or our online contact form.

We understand that life with little ones can be unpredictable! To help us maintain consistent therapy schedules and make appointment times available to other families, we ask for at least 24 hours’ notice when you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment.

We’re happy to work with your family to plan ahead for vacations, holidays, extracurricular activities, or other scheduling conflicts whenever possible. When an appointment is cancelled, we encourage families to reschedule so your child can continue receiving consistent support.

When Your Child Is Sick

Your child’s health and the health of our families and therapists are important to us. If your child, you, or another family member is experiencing symptoms such as fever, vomiting, diarrhea, or a new cough, please reach out to reschedule the session.

Your child should be fever-free and/or symptom-free for at least 24 hours before returning to therapy. There will be no cancellation fee for appointments missed due to illness.

Late Cancellations & No-Shows

• 24+ hours’ notice: No cancellation fee.

• Less than 1 hour’s notice: A fee of 50% of the expected session payment will apply.

• No-show: A fee of 100% of the expected session payment will apply.

• First occurrence: We understand that unexpected situations happen! The first late cancellation or no-show will be considered a courtesy and will not be charged.

Thank you for helping us keep schedules running smoothly and ensuring your child receives the consistent support they need!

The first session is about establishing a connection and building rapport. We’ll spend time getting to know your child through play, conversation, or activities that feel natural to them. We'll also chat with you about your goals, observations, and any questions you have. The focus is on building comfort and understanding, not testing or performance.
