Private In-Home Speech Therapy for Children in
San Antonio, Texas
In-home pediatric speech therapy in North San Antonio, designed around your child, your family, and real life.
When Communication Is Hard, Getting Help Shouldn’t Be
Finding the right support for your child can often be an overwhelming journey. We bring evidence-based speech therapy directly to your child, so parents can spend less time driving to appointments and more quality time with their families. We meet children where they are, build on their strengths, and help them develop communication skills that matter at home, at school, and in their relationships. We follow a “self-advocacy first” approach because we believe every child deserves a reliable way to express what they want, need, think, and feel.
We’ve designed our process to remove as much friction as possible for busy families. We offer easy online intake forms, automated appointment reminders, a secure patient portal to access your child’s information, a direct line to your therapist, and automatic payment so you don’t have to worry about the administrative side of things.
In-Home Pediatric Speech Therapy Services
-
For young children who are just beginning to communicate, or who aren’t communicating as easily as expected, we focus on building social connection and meaningful ways to express themselves. Therapy may support gesture use or signs, sounds, words, play, early language, and other forms of communication while helping caregivers learn practical strategies they can use in everyday routines.
-
When a child is difficult to understand or struggles to produce certain sounds, articulation / phonological therapy helps build clearer, more confident communication. We look beyond individual sounds to understand the patterns behind your child’s speech and base our treatment plan on these patterns.
-
Receptive (what a child understands) and expressive (what a child can communicate) language therapies support children who have difficulty understanding others, expressing their thoughts, putting words and sentences together, or using language effectively in everyday situations. We build on your child’s strengths and interests to develop practical skills that support communication, learning, independence, and social relationships.
-
Speaking is only one way to communicate. We help non-speaking or minimally-speaking (“non-verbal”) children develop more reliable ways to express their needs, preferences, ideas, and boundaries through a Total Communication approach that may include gestures, signs, pictures, and augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices. Our priority is giving your child a voice they can use now, while we continue to build the skills needed for more mature communication as they grow.
-
You spend far more time with your child than any therapist ever will! Everyday interactions are a powerful part of communication development. Parent coaching gives you practical, individualized strategies for supporting communication during real life. Parents are encouraged to participate in sessions and home program recommendations are provided for our families so you can continue our work after sessions are over.

Meet Your Speech Therapist
Hi there! I’m DeAnna Womack, M.S., CCC-SLP, ASDCS, the owner and Speech-Language Pathologist behind Blue Sage Pediatric Speech and Language Therapy.
I have been a pediatric home-health therapist here in the San Antonio area for 10 years. When I started Blue Sage, I knew that I wanted to continue to see children in their everyday environments. Being in-home is such a fantastic opportunity for so many reasons! It allows me to see what communication looks like in everyday life, so I can give you the strategies that make the most sense for your family. Families can be involved in sessions, and we can work as a team to support your child. I also find supporting Autistic children and their families especially rewarding, and being able to have therapy at home can significantly reduce the stress that both you and your child feel about appointments. I want our time in therapy together to feel supportive, encouraging, empowering, and fun!

Frequently Asked Questions About In-Home Speech Therapy
-
If your child is hard to understand, frustrated when communicating, using fewer words than expected, or having trouble expressing their ideas, a speech and language evaluation can help you understand what is going on. Blue Sage Pediatric Speech and Language Therapy provides in-home evaluations and therapy sessions for children in North San Antonio.
-
Yes! Blue Sage is a mobile outpatient provider, meaning that we travel to meet our clients where they are already comfortable learning and playing. We generally see our clients at their homes, and we can also provide services in other locations such as daycares, Montessori or private schools, and ABA clinics.
-
For many children, home therapy can be just as effective or more effective than clinic-based services. In-home sessions allow the therapist to work closely with your family to target the skills that make the biggest difference in your day-to-day life. We love parent coaching and want to teach you the techniques and strategies we are using so you can continue to support your child outside of sessions.
-
Every child’s needs are unique. First we will work with you to complete a comprehensive evaluation to identify your child’s current strengths and areas of need. Then we will use your child’s individual strengths and preferences to teach them new skills and develop more effective ways to communicate. If you have questions about your child’s specific needs, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We are passionate about supporting children on the autism spectrum and their families.
-
Neurodiversity is the idea that every brain is different, and that variations do not necessarily need to be “fixed.” We do not try to make children look “neurotypical.” Instead, we celebrate each child’s uniqueness and take great care to learn how your child naturally processes information. We want to work with their brain so we can teach them the skills they need in a way that makes sense to them.
