Let’s be honest—many children aren’t benefiting from online therapy.
We see it all the time. Therapists offer speech, occupational, and behavior therapy online. Sessions are scheduled, worksheets are emailed, video calls happen… but the child isn’t engaged. There’s no real progress. Parents feel frustrated, but they’re told to "keep going."
The truth is, online therapy often doesn’t work for children with autism, ADHD, speech delays, or sensory needs. These kids need hands-on support, face-to-face interaction, and a therapist who can guide them in real time—not through a screen.
We’ve seen children who scream and shut down online come alive in a sensory room. Non-verbal kids who stay silent on Zoom begin pointing and vocalizing in person. In face-to-face sessions, therapists can observe, redirect, connect, and adjust immediately—something no online platform can offer.
If your child isn’t making progress, don’t just assume the problem is with them. The format matters.
Your child deserves therapy that actually works—not just therapy that’s convenient.
