Research consistently shows that when parents and caregivers are actively involved in therapy, children make faster and more meaningful progress. At The ProAACtive SLP, we weave parent coaching into every service—and also offer it as a stand-alone option for families who want to strengthen communication at home.
Through coaching, we guide you in using practical, evidence-based strategies during your family’s everyday routines. Sessions are interactive, giving you hands-on practice so you feel confident using the techniques between visits. This approach not only supports your child’s development but also helps reduce family stress and builds stronger communication connections.
We’re proud to offer two highly respected parent programs: Hanen’s More Than Words® and It Takes Two to Talk®, both designed to empower families and make communication a natural part of daily life.
