Speech therapy in El Paso, Texas: local help and practice at home

El Paso families can seek a school evaluation, use the Texas ECI finder or contact UTEP’s speech, language and hearing clinic. Neighborhood parks and library branches can make room for conversation in the languages your family uses.

Understand the places in this guide

El Paso’s historic districts include Sunset Heights, Ysleta, Manhattan Heights and Austin Terrace. Kern Place, Cielo Vista, Upper Valley and Castner Heights also appear in neighborhood association resources, whose footprints need separate consideration. The UTEP clinic provides English and Spanish services, so ask directly about the language of an evaluation and current availability rather than changing your home language for an appointment.

Prepare for the first conversation

UTEP Speech, Language and Hearing Clinic is a specific clinical option to contact. Bring a few examples of what your child finds easy and difficult to communicate, and note the languages used at home. Ask how the provider evaluates a child of your child’s age and what the next steps cost. School evaluation and ECI follow their own processes, so confirm your address before choosing one route.
