Tele-therapy.

We’ve had great success via teletherapy over the past 4 years and it provides lots of benefits:

  • is fun and engaging for children

  • often easier for parents to ‘fit in’ to a busy schedule

  • reduces travel time and cost

  • increases our capacity - we can support you even if we don’t have a therapist in your area!
