BIG NEWS for our AHT families!
We are now officially in-network with Blue Cross Complete.

We know so many of our families have been reaching out and waiting for this, and we truly apologize for the looooong delay it took to get in-network. Thank you for your patience and trust, we’re just as excited as you are that the wait is finally over.

This was the last piece of the Blue Cross family of plans we were waiting on, and now we can finally serve our families without barriers.

We’ve already started going through our waitlist this week and can’t wait to welcome more children and families into our neuroaffirming care.

Both our Ann Arbor & Dearborn clinics are now open to Blue Cross Complete families.
Visit anwarht.com for the full list of insurances we accept.

Does speaking two languages cause stuttering?
The short answer: No. Research shows bilingualism does not cause stuttering. Families should never feel pressured to “drop a language” your child can thrive in both.

👉 What to do instead:

Keep speaking both languages with confidence.
Give your child rich opportunities to hear and use both.
Model slow, relaxed speech and give them time to respond.

🚩 When to watch for signs of stuttering:

Repetitions of sounds, syllables, or words (e.g., “b-b-b-ball”)
Prolongations (“ssssssun”)
Visible tension or struggle when trying to speak
Avoiding talking or showing frustration
Stuttering that lasts longer than 6 months

If you notice these, connect with a licensed SLP for support. Early help makes a difference.

Save this post to remind yourself (and share with another parent who needs to hear it).

Parents ask me all the time, ‘Why is my child still not talking, even after starting speech therapy?’The truth is, speech is so much more than just words, it can be impacted by motor planning, sensory needs, regulation, or even the way a child’s brain processes language. Progress can feel slow, but it doesn’t mean it’s not happening
