Getting started with online support today
Choose the best therapist for you
When it comes to seeking online support, one of the key advantages is the ability to choose from a wide range of therapists. Whether you are looking for someone with expertise in PT, OT, or SLP, there is a therapist available to help you. To ensure that you get the best support possible, take some time to review our therapist profiles and their areas of specialization. This will help you determine if they have the knowledge and experience to address your specific needs.
Determine your goals and expectations
Before reaching out for therapy support, it is important to have a clear understanding of what you hope to achieve through the services we offer. This could include specific goals related to treating a specific child, a specific diagnosis, or questions you need answered. By setting realistic expectations, you can better communicate your needs to the specialist and work together towards achieving them.
Prepare for your sessions
It is important to come prepared for your online support sessions and in-person therapy sessions. This may include thinking about the topics you want to discuss, writing down any questions you have, and reflecting on your progress since the last session. It can also be helpful to create a comfortable and quiet space where you can fully focus on your session without distractions. If you are asking questions about your child, you may want to schedule a time when your child is rested and able to engage and participate.
Communicate openly and honestly
Online support relies heavily on effective communication between the therapist and patient. It is important to be open and honest about your feelings, thoughts, and experiences in order for the therapist to provide the best support possible. This can also include giving feedback on what is working for you and what may not be as helpful.
