We are offering Speech Teletherapy!
Speech Teletherapy is the delivery of speech, language, and feeding services at a distance by linking the client and the clinician through a secure video platform. Essentially, your speech therapy visit will take place on screen in your own home.
Your Therapist:
Your speech therapist is a board and state licensed Speech-Language Pathologist or Speech-Language Pathology Assistant who is dedicated to delivering the same quality of care that they provide during in-person visits.
Your therapist is required to adhere to the code of ethics set forth by the American Speech-Language Hearing Association (ASHA).
Required Equipment:
Computer (desktop or laptop) or tablet
Built-in or external microphone and webcam
High-speed internet works best
Parent/Caregiver Role:
You will act as an ‘e-helper’ for your little one during his/her session to help navigate the technology, implement strategies while your therapist coaches you, help to manage attention and participation, and give positive feedback for a job well done (think high-fives). Please make yourself readily available to ensure an awesome session.
Teletherapy Outcomes:
Research studies have shown that outcomes are consistent with traditional (in-person) delivery methods for different ages and patient populations. The American Speech-Language Hearing Association (ASHA) endorses it as an effective way of providing Speech-Language therapy.
