How do I get started with speech therapy at Pinnacle Therapy MT?

Start with a free consultation call to discuss your concerns and determine if therapy is a good fit. If recommended, a comprehensive evaluation is scheduled, followed by individualized therapy sessions.

Does Pinnacle Therapy MT accept insurance?

Pinnacle Therapy MT is a private pay practice. Payment is made directly at the time of service. Superbills are available upon request so clients can seek potential out-of-network reimbursement from their insurance provider.

A superbill is a detailed receipt that includes all the information insurance companies typically require for clients to submit for potential out-of-network reimbursement.

Step 1

Free consult call- During this brief conversation, we talk about your concerns, review relevant background information, and determine whether speech therapy may be beneficial. This is also a time to ask questions, learn about services, and discuss scheduling and options.

Step 2

If therapy is recommended, the next step is a comprehensive evaluation. The evaluation includes standardized testing, informal observations, and caregiver input to identify strengths, challenges, and functional communication needs. Results are reviewed with you, and individualized goals are created based on the patient’s specific needs and priorities.

Step 3

Following the evaluation, therapy sessions begin. Sessions are personalized, evidence-based, and designed to be engaging and functional. Progress is monitored regularly, goals are updated as needed, and families are encouraged to participate so skills can be supported and practiced beyond the therapy setting.

Payment and Insurance

Insurance Coverage

I currently accept Blue Cross Blue Shield of Montana insurance. If you are covered by a different insurance provider, I am happy to explore your benefits and determine whether coverage may be available for my services. My goal is to make the process as smooth and supportive as possible, so please feel free to reach out with your insurance information or any questions about coverage options

Out-of-Network Reimbursement

While I finalize my insurance contracts, I am happy to provide superbills upon request. A superbill is a detailed receipt that includes the specific diagnostic and treatment codes insurance companies require to process out-of-network claims.

How it works: You pay for the session upfront, and then submit the superbill to your carrier.
Potential Benefits: Depending on your specific plan, you may receive partial reimbursement for the cost of services.
Pro Tip: I encourage families to contact their provider directly to verify their "out-of-network speech therapy benefits" before we begin.

I am always happy to answer questions and support you in navigating this process. My goal is to ensure you feel empowered and informed while we focus on what matters most: your or your child’s progress.

Daycare and Preschool Screenings

I partner directly with local daycare and preschool programs to provide convenient, complimentary developmental screenings for children right in their familiar classroom environment. Following the screening, parents or guardians will receive a detailed recommendation emailed directly to them. Please note that I am unable to offer these screenings on an individual basis; they must be coordinated through a participating daycare or preschool program. If you are a daycare or preschool director interested in bringing this service to your facility, or a parent who would like me to reach out to your child’s program, please contact me. For parents whose daycare or preschool has already scheduled a screening day, please complete the form below to opt in. Please note: I cannot provide a screening for your child until a signed permission form is submitted.
