Telehealth

What is telehealth?

"Our regular telehealth sessions via Zoom with Gillian have been invaluable. We are seeing quicker results than we thought possible even with direct therapy! "

Whether I am working with you through home visits, or video calls, video reflection - looking, together, at videos of interactions between you and your child - is the key which allows us to witness and fully understand your child's emerging skills and unlock their potential. Parents often find it convenient to meet with me when they are not juggling looking after their child. Some choose to have a video call while their child is at nursery/school, or having a nap, so they can have all of their attention on our discussion. For some couples an evening appointment online allows them both to attend. Many parents choose a combination of home visits and telehealth sessions as they see benefits to both.

Parents are often unsure, at first, about doing sessions via video call but many of the parents who have provided my Google Reviews have not met me face to face. Please see my FAQs for more information about the therapy I offer.

"In only 4 short weeks working with Gillian, we have seen a massive difference in our son’s communication. The fact we haven’t met Gillian in person has not taken away from the wonderful progress our son has made...and having sessions via video call has given us extra flexibility. "

"Using telehealth for speech therapy has been really valuable for my family. Meeting with Gillian has helped us to adjust our behaviour to allow our son to communicate with us more. Using telehealth allows us to video our interactions with our son when it is convenient to us, Gillian is then able to suggest the best way forward to improve his communication in a range of ways. My husband and I are really pleased with the improvements our son has made since starting with Gillian and telehealth. "

Parents receive follow up emails, with a session summary, and useful links & resources .

Telehealth is an effective, evidence based way of delivering Speech & Language Therapy. It is widely used in countries, such as the US, where people would have to travel long distances to access services.
