Happy Whale Therapy is a pediatric speech therapy practice that specializes in helping children aged 2–6 develop effective communication skills. We offer play-based, individualized therapy to support speech, language, and social development.

We specialize in early childhood and work primarily with children between the ages of 2 and 6 years old.

We support a range of communication challenges, including:

• Speech sound delays and articulation issues
• Language delays (understanding and using words)
• Social communication difficulties
• Apraxia of speech
• Stuttering and fluency issues

Happy Whale Therapy is located in Pompano Beach, Florida, conveniently serving families in the surrounding areas including Fort Lauderdale, Deerfield Beach, Lighthouse Point, and Boca Raton. We offer in-person therapy sessions only at our Pompano Beach location.

We currently accept:

• Aetna insurance
• Step Up for Students scholarships
• Private pay (self-pay clients)

An initial evaluation involves:

• A parent interview
• Observing and interacting with your child
• Standardized assessments, when appropriate
• A written report and personalized recommendations

Session frequency and duration are customized after the initial evaluation.

If your child is not meeting communication milestones, is hard to understand, or shows frustration when trying to speak, a speech-language evaluation can help determine if therapy is beneficial. You can also schedule a free consultation to discuss your concerns.
