Teletherapy

About Teletherapy


Image Description

We have been successfully offering teletherapy services for both individual therapy and group therapy. We can help to coach and support you whether you’re living in Singapore or overseas. Teletherapy can be both convenient and effective. Virtual sessions allow our therapists to see you in your home environment, and better tailor strategies to your needs.

Teletherapy may consist of:

  • Working directly with the client
  • Coaching parents/caregivers
  • A combination of direct intervention and parent coaching

The therapist will evaluate your suitability for teletherapy and which model will best meet your needs.

Direct Intervention

  • If suitable, small groups may be recommended based on compatibility
  • Home assignments may be given
  • Some individuals may require support from a caregiver during the session, while others can attend independently

Caregiver coaching

  • Primary caregivers will be guided through goals and activities that target your child’s needs.
  • Your child may or may not be physically involved during the session.
  • Review of home practice may be done through video analyses or real-time feedback.
  • Our therapist and caregiver will collaborate closely to discuss and troubleshoot the strategies customised for your child.

Working with other stakeholders

  • We also invite open discussions with the individual’s therapy support team, school team and/or other caregivers to ensure a holistic intervention plan across all settings.
