Parents play a key role in the therapy process and their involvement is essential for their child’s progress. From the very beginning, parents are interviewed during the assessment to gather important information about the child’s history, current speech and communication abilities, and parent concerns and goals. This helps create a therapy plan that aligns with the child’s needs and the family's priorities. To help parents understand our approach, materials on the Dynamic Temporal and Tactile Cueing (DTTC) method are provided to explain how it works and how it is implemented in therapy. Throughout therapy, parents have an active role in selecting meaningful words and phrases that will be the most useful for the child in daily life. Home practice is a critical part of therapy. Targets and levels of prompting are provided for parents to work on with their child. It is important for families to discuss with their therapist how daily practice can be incorporated into their schedules. We also rely on parents to track progress outside of therapy, including improvements in speech clarity at home, school, or in social settings. Regular check-ins allow us to adjust therapy as needed, ensuring that your child continues to make meaningful progress in both structured sessions and everyday communication.
