Online speech therapy has been proven effective by over 40 academic studies and, in some cases, even better than in-person treatment. For example, people with anxiety or sensory issues are oftentimes more relaxed and focused with online instruction provided in the comfort of their own home. It may be more appropriate for your family as scheduling is easier sessions are available at more convenient times. This decreases the frequency of missed sessions and progress is made faster. Speech therapy for seniors who might have a difficult time getting to sessions also provides access to care they wouldn't otherwise get. Online speech therapy also allows those with difficulty accessing quality services in their community to have a speech therapist available to them at home. Online speech therapy is also great for families that don't want to wait for a speech therapist to become available. At Better Speech we have a Parent Coaching program where parents learn to use strategies to improve their child's communication while working with a speech therapist online.
