Frequently Asked Questions
How do we get started?
To begin the process, send an email to info@GreenLightSpeechTherapy.com with a brief description of your situation and needs. Once we receive your email, a clinician will contact you to schedule a discovery call.
Discovery calls are a key part of our process. At Green Light, we prioritize joy, positivity, and respect for every individual, big and small. Our commitment to these values is at the heart of our success. Taking the time to connect before beginning therapy ensures that we are the right fit for your family and that everyone’s time is well spent. We look forward to speaking with you!
What types of Therapy Approaches are used?
Therapists tailor their approach to best meet your child's unique needs, rather than relying on a single method. They are highly trained in a variety of techniques, including orofacial myofunctional therapy, sensory-motor therapy/ oral placement therapy, and more. By combining these methods, therapists can provide the most effective and individualized care for your child.
How long does it take?
We understand that every child is wonderfully unique, and their therapy journey should reflect that individuality. While we can't predict the precise timeline, we're deeply committed to fostering consistent, week-to-week progress.
This commitment stems from our personalized approach: we meticulously craft therapy sessions tailored to your child's specific needs, and we thoughtfully weave in activities that spark their genuine interest.
Furthermore, we're passionate about ensuring therapy extends beyond our sessions and into everyday life. We believe in empowering parents and caregivers, so we prioritize open communication and dedicated training. We make it a point to connect with you, to equip you with the knowledge and skills to effectively apply therapeutic methods in your daily routines. It's about building a strong, collaborative partnership, ensuring your child's growth is nurtured and supported every step of the way.
Do you collaborate with other providers?
We know how overwhelming it can be to constantly relay information between doctors and therapists. You’re already doing so much for your child, and we want to lighten that load. That’s why we believe in a team approach—working hand in hand with your child’s other providers to ensure every need is met and no detail is overlooked.
If your child needs additional support, we’re here for that too. Through our trusted network of professionals, we can help connect you with providers who truly care, so you never have to navigate this journey alone.
