Fun and interactive Speech & Language Therapy sessions from the comfort of your home through our online speech therapy sessions. Our online services include:
Initial consultations
Assessments
Therapy
Reviews
Observations
Training
Supervision for SLTs
If you identify any of the above list with your child, or you have any other Speech, Language and Communication concerns then we recommend you start with a Speech and Language Assessment for your child.
London Speech Therapy provides a flexible approach to Speech and Language Assessments by using a mix of formal (standardised and norm-referenced) and informal assessments to gain an accurate picture of your child’s needs. This is then used to plan effective, accessible and fun therapy for your child.
Speech and language therapy for children can take place at our Harley Street clinic (Central London); our Stratford Speech Therapy clinic (East London); at your child’s school/nursery or at your family home. We cover London and surrounding areas including Kent, Essex, Sussex and Suffolk. We also deliver assessments online via tele-therapy if we feel it would be appropriate for your child.
Our Online Therapy Services
We can provide most therapy services online, including support with speech sounds, stammering, voice, social communication, language, grammar, AAC and parent child interaction sessions. Adults can also access therapy for voice, stammering and aphasia. Online sessions are tailored to your goals and offer the same high quality intervention as our in person work.
Why Choose Tele Therapy?
Accessible, Flexible and Proven Effective
During the COVID 19 pandemic, London Speech Therapy adapted its services to ensure continuity of care through online sessions. Tele therapy proved highly successful, allowing clients to continue meeting their communication goals, and we have kept this service due to its effectiveness and flexibility. Online therapy is research informed, offers shorter waiting times and is delivered by fully qualified, highly experienced Speech and Language Therapists.
A Safe, Engaging and Interactive Experience
We deliver online sessions using Zoom, which is GDPR compliant and uses added password protection. This allows us to speak, see each other and include you or your child fully in the therapy process. Therapists can share their screen with pictures, games and drawings, and annotate together to keep sessions fun and engaging. Online therapy can be offered 1:1 or in small groups, giving you choice in how you receive support.
What Happens in Tele Therapy?
The therapist selects activities that match the client’s speech and language needs, just as they would in clinic. With older children and adults, we work directly through tasks and structured activities. With younger children, parents may be asked to have specific toys or games ready so that we can guide you through interaction based activities and provide feedback throughout. Activities or worksheets may be sent in advance to support the session and ongoing practice. We value the flexibility that online therapy brings. With no travel time to factor in, we can often offer more convenient appointments and maintain a consistent therapy schedule that works for you.
