Top 4 Reasons To Consider Private Speech Therapy Services

When considering therapeutic interventions for your child, finding the right fit is so important.  For many families, private pediatric therapy can be a great option to consider! When working with Way To Grow Pediatric practitioners, there are three top benefits to private therapy that might make it a top option: 


ONE-ON-ONE-THERAPY SESSIONS

In many traditional therapy settings, services often take in a group setting.  While there can be powerful vicarious learning that takes place in a group setting and it can be a great environment to practice interpersonal skills, some children thrive working one on one with a clinician.  With the therapist focusing solely on your child and his/her goals, it is not uncommon for progress to happen faster.  

NATURAL ENVIRONMENT

With Way to Grow Pediatric Therapy, sessions take place in a child’s home or other familiar environment.  When children feel comfortable, we can get to work right away! This also makes the conditions right for family involvement.  Parents appreciate being able to witness the therapy sessions to learn some helpful strategies to incorporate into daily routines between sessions. This is where the real progress takes place!  


YEAR ROUND SCHEDULING

Perhaps your child is getting their needs met at school, but then goes without therapy during summer vacation and holiday breaks.  Depending on availability, private therapy can be a wonderful supplement to keep up with progress outside of the academic year.  

     

ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA

Children are eligible for therapy services in the school based on “academic impact.”  Therapy services at Way To Grow are based on the entirety of skills that children need in order to thrive in all daily routines, both in and out of school.
