Pediatric Teletherapy in Connecticut

Flexible, Play-Based Pediatric Therapy in a Child’s Home Environment

Accessing pediatric therapy isn’t always simple. Illness, transportation challenges, busy schedules, inclement weather, or unexpected changes can make it difficult to attend in-person sessions consistently. Pediatric teletherapy services at More to Say offer families a flexible way to continue care while staying connected and supported.

Teletherapy allows your child to receive play-based pediatric therapy from home using a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform. Families can choose teletherapy as a primary service, as a hybrid option alongside in-clinic visits, or as an alternative when coming into the clinic is not possible. Our goal is to help your child continue building skills in a way that feels achievable and supportive for your family.

What Is Pediatric Teletherapy?

Pediatric teletherapy, sometimes called virtual therapy or online therapy, is a way for children of all ages to receive therapy services via virtual meeting with a licensed More to Say clinician. Sessions are conducted through a secure video platform and are designed to be interactive, engaging, and individualized to support your child’s goals.

At More to Say, teletherapy is available for all pediatric therapy services, including:

Signs Teletherapy May Be a Good Fit for Your Child

Telehealth can be a helpful option for many children and families. Your child may benefit from virtual therapy sessions if they:

Have difficulty attending in-person sessions due to illness or transportation challenges
Need flexibility to fit therapy into family routines
Benefit from practicing skills in their home environment
Need continuity of care when clinic visits are not possible

Teletherapy is not an “either-or” decision. In fact, many families find that a combination of in-person and telehealth sessions provides a balance that helps their child thrive across environments.

Our Approach to Teletherapy at More to Say

Child-Led and Play-Based Sessions

Teletherapy at More to Say follows the same child-led, play-based, and responsive approach used in our clinics. Therapy sessions are designed around your child’s interests, strengths, and goals to make learning meaningful and motivating.

Using Familiar Materials from Home

Our therapists use a mix of interactive virtual activities and materials already available in your home to support skill development. Using familiar toys and materials during teletherapy allows skills to be practiced in ways that feel natural.

Supporting Skill Generalization in Daily Routines

Working within your child’s home environment supports generalization, which means applying the skills practiced in therapy directly to daily life across environments. When children learn and practice skills in the same environment where they naturally use them, those skills are more likely to carry over into everyday routines.

What Can Your Child Learn Through Teletherapy?

Your child can learn anything through teletherapy that they would during an in-person session! Teletherapy supports a wide range of developmental skills, including:

Speech sound production and clarity
Language comprehension and expression
Social communication and interaction
Fine and gross motor skill development
Sensory processing and emotional regulation strategies
Feeding skills and mealtime routines
Attention, participation, and executive function skills
