What are the benefits of online speech therapy/remote speech therapy?

What are the benefits of remote or online speech therapy intervention?

Flexibility in scheduling. Online speech therapy can help you conveniently schedule sessions when you are available.
Can be done from the comfort of your own home. Online speech therapy is an excellent option for children or adults with mobility issues or who live in rural areas with limited access to speech therapists.
Generalizing speech goals outside of the speech office. Often speech therapists like to talk about generalization of speech therapy goals. Children or adults may achieve something in the therapy room, but then need to generalize this skill outside of therapy. With online speech therapy, the opportunity to generalize skills in your own environment is easier because you will be in your own environment during the session.
It is easier for parents to get involved. Oftentimes children receive speech therapy during school hours or directly after school. Parents are often working or running errands at this time. Online speech therapy is sometimes more convenient for you and your child.

Does speech online speech therapy have the same benefits of in-person speech therapy?

Whether referred to as speech telehealth, telepractice, telemedicine, telerehabilitation, or simply online speech therapy, there have been numerous articles proving its effectiveness.

Teletherapy is recognized by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association as well as other professional associations for mental health, allied health, and medical providers as an effective means for service delivery. Below I have summarized some of the research comparing in-person and online speech therapy.

This study showed no significant difference between teletherapy and traditional in-person therapy for primary school aged children with challenges in speech and language.
This study confirmed that the webcam Lidcombe Program intervention for stuttering is just as viable as the standard clinic Lidcombe program treatment.
This study confirms the efficacy of online speech therapy for speech sound disorders.
This study supported the use of LSVT LOUD via teletherapy for patients with Parkinson's. This study supported this conclusion as well.
This study confirm that stuttering telepractice evaluations may be comparable to in-person evaluations.
This study supports that in-person and online speech therapy were largely equivalent when providing therapy to individuals with stroke-induced aphasia.
This systematic review reviewed literature regarding adult telepractice services (screening, assessment, and treatment) from 2014-2019. Results supported the use of telepractice.
