Interact Therapy Frequently Asked Questions

At your first visit, an evaluation will include:

1. Formal and informal evaluations
2. Parent and child interviews
3. Parent-therapist collaboration regarding your child’s current skills and challenges

Following the evaluation, your therapist will discuss recommendations and provide you with a copy of the evaluation report. If further therapy is recommended, your child will be seen at a frequency that is decided by you and your therapist to address his/her needs in a fun and playful way during treatment and through home program suggestions. If therapy is not recommended, you and your child will be provided with ideas and therapy tools/suggestions to use at home and in the community.
