Is Virtual (Telehealth) just as Beneficial as In-Person?

Telehealth is often just as beneficial, and sometimes better, than in-person services. This is because families can connect from the comfort of their homes without navigating traffic, hectic schedules, and concerns about exposure to illnesses. Click the links below to read the research!

What Does an Evaluation Look Like?

Evaluations are between 30-60 minutes in duration and involves a parent interview and thorough testing to assess all areas of concern. McKenzie will discuss her findings with you and write a complete evaluation report with an appropriate plan of care including treatment goals and additional referrals if needed.

Are Parents/Caregivers Present for Evaluations and Treatment?

Absolutely! McKenzie encourages parents/caregivers to be present for evaluations and therapy. During evaluations, parents offer invaluable information about their child’s interests and strengths and aid McKenzie in creating a treatment plan for their child. During treatment sessions, McKenzie will work 1:1 with your child but she will also provide you with strategies to continue the same work at home.

What is Evidence Based Practice?

Evidence Based Practice (EBP) is the combination of clinical expertise, internal and external data, and parent/client/caregiver perspective.
