5 Benefits of GET’s Online Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Reading Intervention, and Tutoring!
When Global Education Therapy was founded, online speech & occupational therapy were in the beginning stages. It came about due to the need to find therapists in locations without services. Online education quickly became commonplace during the pandemic, allowing Global Education Therapy to expand the company to help children during quarantine through a multitude of online educational services including speech-language therapy, occupational therapy, educational support, reading intervention, and social skills groups. Global Education Therapy has seen an increasing trend of clients choosing to continue with online educational services even when they find access to a local therapist.
5 Benefits of GET’s Online Educational Services
ACCESSIBILITY: Every parent is looking for the perfect therapist or teacher who will address the individual needs of their child. Some of our clients have told us they only get that with online services. When a parent is looking for a therapist or educator with a specialty, they might not find that person locally.
ONLINE EXPERTS: Online educational services bridge the gap between just getting someone and getting the exact person you need. It also offers continuity in a time when people find themselves moving around more often than ever before.
CONTINUATION OF CARE: With virtual educational services, a parent does not have to ask a child to leave behind a beloved therapist or teacher who already knows and works well with your child.
CONVENIENCE: Remote educational services have the added benefit of being convenient and allow you to see the therapist when it is a good time for you, in any location. With busy schedules, the last thing you need is to drive to a clinic for therapy. When we are busy, finding ways to free up time is a luxury. Parents can focus more on the therapy itself rather than rushing to make it to an appointment on time. And as a result, there is more opportunity for you to become involved as a parent. This was an unexpected benefit of online therapy and we have seen it make a huge difference with our clients.
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT: Online sessions are conducted in the privacy of your own home and you and your child learn new skills together. This means that parents can work on goals with their child in a natural setting and feel confident about continuing to practice together even when the therapist or educator is not present.
In Conclusion…
Online services offer much more than just a therapy session. Your child has the opportunity to learn in their home with a therapist that meets their individual needs. This is the reason many of our clients continue to choose online therapy over in-person therapy. People are realizing that they can develop a meaningful and purposeful relationship with their online therapists: one that benefits both the parents and their children.
GET is glad that we can provide our clients with this kind of positive experience, which undoubtedly helps children reach their therapy goals and further their educational development.
