How do we begin therapy?
Call or email J'Vohnne, then complete the Client Intake Form. From there we review consent, privacy, and partnership papers and schedule an evaluation or first session.
Every bloom begins with ROSE.

Questions, answered with care

You do not need a referral to start a conversation. Some insurance plans or school processes may ask for one later. We will help you sort that out as we go.
ROSE supports individuals across the lifespan: early intervention (birth–3), preschool and school-age children, adolescents, and adults needing communication or cognitive-communication care after stroke, brain injury, Parkinson's disease, or dementia-related change.
Augmentative and alternative communication includes anything that supports or replaces spoken words—gestures, signs, pictures, and speech-generating devices. AAC is a voice, not a last resort. The AAC Support page has more on how ROSE walks with families.
Yes. ROSE provides birth–3 communication support and parent coaching in everyday routines. With permission, we can coordinate with early-intervention teams. That is collaboration, not a claim of a state EI contract. Call to begin, or read the Early Intervention page.
Yes. Fluency support is one of ROSE's current offerings for children and adults. Therapy is individualized after evaluation and aims at confidence, ease, and self-advocacy—not a demand for perfect speech. See the Fluency page, or call to start a conversation.
Yes. Aphasia support after stroke or brain injury is part of ROSE's adult care. Therapy aims at the conversations that still belong to this person—meals, appointments, and stories—not only at exercises. Families are partners. See the Aphasia page, or call to begin.
Yes. Voice support is one of ROSE's adult offerings. Care is individualized after evaluation. See the Voice page, or call to talk through what has changed.
Yes. Neurological rehabilitation includes stroke, traumatic brain injury, Parkinson's disease communication, dementia-related communication, cognitive-communication therapy, and dysarthria support. Medical care stays with your physicians. See Neurological Rehabilitation, or call J'Vohnne.
Yes—ask when you reach out. ROSE can arrange teletherapy and, when it serves the plan, in-person or community visits. Chicago-area families are especially welcome. See How Care Is Delivered for details.
Frequency and length are individualized after evaluation. Recommendations are written into the plan so you know what to expect before therapy begins.
Please give at least 24-hour notice to cancel or reschedule. Appointments canceled with less than 24 hours' notice, or missed without notice, may be charged a $25 late cancellation/no-show fee unless waived by ROSE.
A late arrival may mean a shortened session so the next family stays on time. The full session fee still applies.
ROSE follows HIPAA practices for treatment, care coordination, documentation, and billing. Health information is shared only with your authorization when required. See the Notice of Privacy Practices and the HIPAA release form.
Fees are discussed before evaluation or therapy begins. Session plans are individualized. Late cancellation and no-show fees are $25 unless waived. A superbill may be available for you to submit to a plan; coverage is never promised. See Fees & Payment, or call to talk through private pay, superbills, and insurance questions.
An evaluation is how ROSE learns this person's story, strengths, and goals. Play, conversation, observation, and formal assessment are used only as they fit. You hear recommendations and fees before you commit to therapy. See the Evaluation page, or the First Visit guide.
Yes. Expressive and receptive language support is part of ROSE's pediatric care, including early language development. See the Language page, or Early Intervention for birth–3 parent coaching.
Only with written consent. If you would like a clip on the Stories page, send it to the practice email and we will confirm permission before anything is posted.
Home practice should be short, kind, and part of real life—play, meals, greetings, and the conversations that already belong to your family. Family Resources has starting ideas. Your plan will name strategies that fit you, and you can always tell J'Vohnne if something does not work at home.
Yes. If a page, form, or visit is hard to use, call or email and tell us what would help—more time, a phone walkthrough, another format, or teletherapy. See the Accessibility page, or start a conversation on Contact.
Start on the For Providers page, then call 773-457-1204 or email rosecommunicationandtherapy@gmail.com. Families can complete a Release of Information so ROSE may coordinate with your team.
With a signed release, ROSE can review IEP or IFSP information, share progress, and help families carry goals between school and home. That is collaboration with the team you already have—not a school-based contract. Families can start on the IEP & School Meetings page. Providers can start on For Providers.
Yes. Autism communication and social communication support are part of ROSE's pediatric care. Therapy is strength-based and individualized after evaluation. This is not a diagnosis service. See Autism Communication, or call to begin.
Yes. Speech sound, articulation, and phonological support is part of current pediatric care. Therapy aims at being understood at home, in play, and at school. See Speech Sounds, or call to start a conversation.
