Do you know how your students are tracking toward their goals and prescripted time? Our platform puts this information at your fingertips, minimizing risk of compliance issues. Our clinicians can perform assessments and do complete case management, including writing IEPs and goals, attending IEP meetings and communicating with each student’s support team of onsite clinicians, teachers, and parents.

Online therapy is appropriate for the vast majority of cases, including students with more severe or profound disabilities like apraxia, Down Syndrome, and cerebral palsy. To ensure best fit, many of our clinicians are experts in particular disorders, bilingual or multi-cultural. Students benefit from sessions customized to their interests, needs, age, developmental abilities and curriculum. Group sessions can be provided for students who need social skills training or who have less individualized needs. Watch
Online therapy is more than just videoconferencing: privacy and security of sessions and student information is paramount. PresenceLearning employs the same level of security as leading financial institutions, and is in line with privacy regulations.
