I am wondering what is generally recommended for the amount of time a child is seen for therapy. I understand there is no set formula, and that severity, age, and motivation should play a factor. Would it be more benificial to see a student every day for a certain number of weeks/months, or should a child be seen a few times a week for months/years?
I work in the public school system and scheduling is always an issue. When they see me, they are missing academics. The clasic therapy model of 1-3 times a week for 20-25 minutes seems to be accepted by most of the administration and faculty. But is this meeting the needs of the student?
Any thought? Thanks for your help!
