Teletherapy
What is Telehealth therapy?
Telehealth for speech therapy offers flexibility, accessibility, and convenience for clients, allowing them to receive quality services from the comfort of their own homes or other convenient locations. Our therapists are trained to provide effective and engaging therapy experiences through virtual platforms. Telehealth has been widely accepted by the health community as an equally effective treatment option to in-person therapy. Whether you are interested in teletherapy as a temporary or permanent solution, we can help. Telehealth for speech therapy involves providing speech and language therapy services remotely using telecommunications technology. Here's what it typically looks like:
​
-
Video Conferencing: Speech therapists conduct sessions with clients via video conferencing platforms like Zoom. Both the therapist and the client can see and hear each other in real-time, allowing for face-to-face interaction and communication.
-
Screening and Assessment: Initial screenings or assessments may be conducted remotely to evaluate the client's speech, language, voice, fluency, and articulation. Therapists may use various tools and techniques, including standardized tests, informal observations, and interviews with caregivers.
​​
-
Therapy Sessions: Therapy sessions are conducted virtually, with the therapist guiding the client through various exercises, activities, and interventions designed to address their specific speech and language goals. Sessions may include practicing speech sounds, language activities, voice exercises, fluency techniques, or strategies for improving communication function.
-
Interactive Activities: Therapists utilize interactive activities and resources to engage clients during virtual sessions. These may include games, digital flashcards, videos, worksheets, and interactive whiteboard features to facilitate learning and skill practice.
-
Parent/Caregiver Involvement: Parents or caregivers often participate in telehealth sessions, especially for younger clients or those with developmental delays. Therapists provide guidance, coaching, and support to help caregivers reinforce therapy techniques and strategies at home.
-
Feedback and Progress Monitoring: Therapists provide feedback and monitor the client's progress over time, adjusting therapy goals and strategies as needed. They may use video recordings, digital assessments, and communication with caregivers to track progress and make informed decisions about treatment plans.
