Birmingham's #1 Speech Therapy Service

Welcome to Endless Speech and Language Service
We know every child has a different style of learning, works at a different pace, and responds in a different way. Our Certified Therapist encourages parent involvement in the treatment process and during the therapy session.
Here at Endless Speech and Language Service, we like to say,
“You should not worry about fitting in when you are custom made.”
You may be asking yourself, why in-home therapy? Should this be a service that I consider for my child? Yes, in addition to convenience, our therapy is tailored to your child’s individual needs and skill level. Home-based therapy also affords flexibility that allows “endless” possibilities and opportunities, providing a familiar comfortable environment for treatment.
