Title: Online Speech Therapy for Autism


1
ONLINE SPEECH THERAPY FOR AUTISM
FOR KIDS
2
PARENT COACHING
Caregivers of children with ASD can learn to
connect with their children by participating in
online speech therapy. The SLP can collaborate
closely with the family to create a treatment
plan that includes tactics and activities for
eliciting effective communication. The SLP has
the advantage of working with the parent in
their home environment. Furthermore, parents are
their childs primary educators from birth. It
is highly beneficial to the child when their
parents constantly repeat the same language
modeled by their SLP.

SENSORY INPUT
  • Many children with autism struggle to comprehend
    the sensory information they get from their
    surroundings.
  • Changing the visual, aural, and tactile signals
    that a child receives increases their attention
    span and participation. Simple modifications,
    such as altering the lighting brightness or the
    volume of a video, may make a big difference in
    the quality of an online therapy session

USE REAL OBJECTS
h . . .
A common misperception that only digital items
can be used in online therapy. The utilization
of real objects in the environment will assist
young children, especially those with ASD. This
form of tangible learning is ideal for the
development of functional communication in
everyday situations like mealtimes. Your childs
SLP can educate you on utilizing toys, books,
and ordinary things in your house to help your
child learn new words.

MOVEMENT
Another misconception regarding online therapy
is that a child must sit and pay attention in
front of the computer for the whole therapy
session. While attention is necessary,
flexibility is critical. During therapy
sessions, including movements into a language
exercise, such as singing Row, Row, Row Your
Boat while having the child motion and rock
their body back and forth, helps enhance a
childs attention while also enhancing their
language learning ability.
