Parent Mediated Therapy is a way of providing therapy services to children via their parents in their own homes instead of in a clinic or hospital. Parents and professionals, like occupational therapists, behavior therapists, and speech-language pathologists, often work together on this kind of programme to come up with a plan that meets the child's needs. This method can be helpful for kids with developmental delays, disabilities, or other conditions like Autism that need therapy on a regular basis. 

By working closely with parents, professionals can make sure that therapy activities are part of the child's daily routine and are more likely to be done consistently, which can lead to better results. Parent Mediated Therapy can also give the child a more comfortable and less scary place to be, which makes them feel more at ease and better able to do therapy activities.
