A one-hour telehealth parent training session is a scheduled, telehealth meeting. This meeting is for urgent needs, emergencies, or situations where immediate guidance is needed that is within our scope of practice. During the meeting, we will review current concerns, strategies to use, and behavioral support needed at home. We will do our best to schedule these sessions as soon as possible; however, availability will be based on our supervisor's schedules.
