KWe all want the best for our children but we can’t always afford the ‘gold star’ standard. Don’t let finances prevent your child from making developmental gains!
Budget Therapy options are delivered by experienced therapists and are tailored to your child’s individual needs (based upon what you tell us and/or written reports). Budget therapy can be delivered by phone, tele-therapy
or written recommendation following conversation with the parent or carer. These condensed therapy options include anything from advice, to activity activities to management recommendations. Use our knowledge to give you the power to make the small but significant changes in your child’s everyday that can contribute to slow and gentle developmental progress.
Use ‘bite-sized’ budget therapy options while determining if further therapy is needed, or whilst waiting on services. These shorter than typical therapy options simply involve less student/therapist direct contact (favouring parent contact instead), and more general application of recommendations and strategies by the parent/educator rather than the therapist. In essence, the difference between ideal and ‘bite sized’ therapy is the method, duration and frequency of the therapy, and thus the cost, as well as the focal person (child versus adult).
Budget therapy options can include one, two or all three of the therapy staples:
On if, when, and why therapy referral is appropriate, as well as what therapy is the best fit for the child (based upon the parents report of the child).
To support children in the home or educational setting
On how to manage developmental challenges (including the resulting behaviour) whilst you work towards addressing the underlying reason for the challenge.
