Personalized services
KSI offers traditional 1:1 individual speech-language treatment, which can be delivered at our offices or off-site at the location of your choice.
Tele-therapy services are available, providing the ultimate in convenience and safety as we navigate therapy during the Covid-19 pandemic. Telehealth uses video conferencing as a medium for providing therapy. This accommodates a frenetic schedule, utilizes familiar and ever more pervasive technologies, brings intervention into the comfort of a client’s home, and offers parent involvement.
We also offer school based services. At times, play-based therapy delivered in a more natural environment with peers is warranted. This also allows opportunities for teacher training, which facilitates consistency.
Additionally, KinderSpeak encourages family involvement, offering parent training and sibling/friend involvement in treatment.
