TELETHERAPY

We know that life is busy, transportation and transitions between activities can be tough, and sickness or weather may keep us at home for an extended time. With teletherapy, you can keep stability in your routine and maintain flexibility for life’s unexpected circumstances without sacrificing progress. ​Enjoy Speech and Language or Occupational Therapy from the comfort of your own home through telehealth!
