The first step in accessing your therapy sessions is understanding the overall booking process. At Better Speech, we have designed a user-friendly system that prioritizes your convenience. Here’s how it works:

Flexible Timing: Our system allows you to select times that fit your schedule. Whether you prefer mornings, afternoons, or evenings, you can find an appointment slot that works best for you.
Accessing Your SLP's Calendar
Accessing your SLP’s calendar is a key part of the booking process. Here’s how to do it:
Log In: First, log into your Better Speech account. If you don't have an account yet, creating one is quick and easy.
Navigate to the Calendar: After logging in, go to your SLP’s profile page, where you will find a calendar displaying their available appointment slots.

Booking on Your Behalf
If you find it more convenient, your SLP can assist you with booking your sessions. Here’s how this option works:
Communication: During your initial consultation, communicate your preferences for session times. Your SLP will take note of your availability and preferred schedule.
Booking: Your SLP will then handle the booking for you, ensuring that you have sessions scheduled at times that work best for you without any extra effort on your part.
Updates: Should you need to make any changes to your schedule in the future, you can simply reach out to your SLP, who will assist you in adjusting your appointments accordingly.
This option is particularly beneficial for those who may have busy schedules or feel uncertain about navigating the online booking system. Our goal is to make the process as seamless as possible.
Managing Your Appointments
Managing your appointments is crucial for staying on track with your therapy. Here are some tips for effective appointment management:
Review Your Schedule: Regularly check your session schedule on your Better Speech account. This helps ensure you are prepared for upcoming sessions and can plan your time effectively.
Set Reminders: Use calendar apps or reminder tools on your phone to alert you before each session. This can help prevent missed appointments and keep your therapy on track.
Communicate with Your SLP: If you ever need to reschedule or have concerns about your therapy, don’t hesitate to reach out to your SLP. They are here to support you and ensure you receive the best care possible.
Feedback and Adjustments: After a few sessions, you might find certain times work better for you or wish to adjust your focus areas. Communicate these preferences with your SLP to refine your schedule and therapy approach.
By actively managing your appointments, you can ensure that you are getting the most out of your speech therapy and making consistent progress.
