How long are appointments?

Therapy frequency is recommended by the evaluating therapist and is customized for each child. Attending therapy consistently at the recommended frequency is the key to meeting therapy goals. Many parents who are new to therapy want an idea, before they come for their initial appointment, of what other families experience during therapy. For speech/language therapy, many of our families bring children for two 30 minute sessions per week. Most of our OT and PT patients are typically seen for one to two 30 – 50 minute session per week. However, it is important to remember that evaluating therapists design therapy for each individual child, so although these frequencies are common, each therapy frequency will be custom designed.
