Terms of use

Effective date: November 8, 2026

These terms apply to your use of talkingjay.com, run by Talking Jay PLLC, doing business as Talking Jay Speech Therapy ("Talking Jay," "we," "us"). By using the site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

The website is for general information

Articles, guides and other content on this site are general education about speech, language, voice and communication. They are not a diagnosis, treatment plan or substitute for an evaluation by a licensed speech-language pathologist. Every person is different, and only an evaluation can tell you what you or your child needs.

Reading the site, filling out the contact form, emailing us or talking with us on a free consultation call does not make you a client or create a therapist-client relationship. That relationship starts only after you book, complete intake and attend your first evaluation.

Not for emergencies

We do not provide emergency services, and we may not see messages right away. If you or someone else is in danger or having a medical emergency, call 911. For a mental health crisis, call or text 988.

Where we provide therapy

Our therapist is licensed in Texas, Virginia and Arizona. We are currently accepting clients in Texas. All therapy takes place by secure video. State licensing rules require the client to be physically located in Texas during each session. We may change the states we serve as our therapists' licenses change.

Booking, fees and policies

Scheduling, intake forms, the client portal, payments and video sessions run through SimplePractice. When you use them, SimplePractice's terms also apply.

Our prices are listed on our pricing page. We do not bill insurance. Payment is due at the time of service. Fees, our cancellation policy, consent forms and other client agreements are provided during intake, and those agreements control your care. If anything in these website terms conflicts with your client agreements, the client agreements win.

If you are uninsured or not using insurance, you have the right to a Good Faith Estimate of expected charges. See our Good Faith Estimate notice.

  • Try to get into parts of the site or our systems you are not allowed to access
  • Interfere with the site's operation, including by sending malware or automated traffic meant to overload it
