How The Process Works
Tailored to Your Child
Kelci works with your child one-on-one via telemedicine. She tailors therapy to the needs of the individual child while adapting each session to their interests and personality.
Language and speech practice are wrapped in playful interaction, using songs and on-screen games that engage your child and keep them excited about learning new skills.
Kelci provides you with updates on a regular basis so you can read the clinical progress made with your child and discuss the treatment direction.
Convenience At Home
Telemedicine Speech Therapy gives you greater scheduling flexibility for your family. Sessions are typically short (20-30 min) to ensure your child is fully engaged, so doing them via telemedicine removes transportation issues.
Online sessions give Kelci a window into your child’s home environment that she wouldn’t have in a school or office setting. She can use familiar toys or other items your child may connect with.
It can be easier for you to stay in communication and build a stronger relationship with Kelci online versus in other settings, the better to support and accelerate your child’s path.
