Yes! Research studies have revealed that online services are as effective as face-to-face instruction in most cases. The smaller group sizes of either 1:1 or 2:1 have proven to be more effective than other methods in cases where students attend sessions with increased frequency due to the convenient nature of service delivery. Further studies and research results about the efficacy of teletherapy/telehealth for children receiving speech-language therapy can be found here. Also, children with anxiety or sensory issues are often more relaxed with online instruction. Most speech and language disorders are able to be effectively treated using online speech therapy. However, it is important to note that online speech therapy is not a great fit for all cases particularly more severe disorders.

Yes! As parents, you are your child's first and most significant teacher and advocate. Your active participation not only enhances the effectiveness of therapy but also fosters a supportive environment for your child's growth. Working together, you can gain a deeper understanding of your child's unique communication needs and learn how to reinforce therapy goals at home. This collaborative approach empowers parents to facilitate progress, improve communication outcomes, and create a nurturing atmosphere that promotes confidence and success in their child's language development journey.

Determining the precise duration of speech-language therapy is challenging because it varies greatly from one individual to another. Each person's communication needs and progress are unique, influenced by factors like the nature and severity of the speech or language disorder, their age, their level of participation in therapy, their response to treatment, and practice outside of therapy sessions. At RosyTalk, we prioritize personalized care, which means that the length of therapy sessions and the overall duration are decided collaboratively with the family. Our goal is to ensure that therapy is tailored to meet specific goals and that progress is achieved at a pace that best serves you/your child's needs, making it impossible to provide a one-size-fits-all estimate for how long speech-language treatment will last.
