For Speech-Language Pathologists
Extend your impact between sessions with a parent companion app designed to support, not replace, your professional work
We're not here to replace you
Gestalts was built by parents navigating GLP with their daughter, Olivia. We experienced firsthand the challenge of the time between therapy sessions. Wanting to support our child but feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and underprepared.
We created Gestalts to bridge that gap, not to bypass professional expertise. Our goal is simple: help parents apply your strategies more effectively, arrive at sessions better prepared, and feel more confident between appointments.
This makes your work easier and more impactful. Instead of spending valuable session time helping parents remember what happened last week or explaining basic GLP concepts repeatedly, you can focus on what you do best: personalised, expert-guided therapy.
How Gestalts supports your practice
Six ways the app helps you deliver better outcomes
Better-Prepared Parents
Parents arrive at sessions with detailed observations, tracked milestones, and specific questions. No more "I can't remember what happened this week."
Extended Impact Between Sessions
Your strategies and recommendations continue working during the time between appointments. Parents receive GLP-informed guidance while always being directed to follow your professional advice.
Automatic Progress Tracking
Parents track gestalts, milestones, and play sessions automatically. You receive comprehensive summaries instead of fragmented notes across multiple apps.
Reduced Caregiver Burnout
Parents feel supported during the gaps between sessions, reducing anxiety and overwhelm. Less burned-out parents are more effective partners in their child's therapy journey.
Evidence-Based Information
Parents receive GLP information aligned with Natural Language Acquisition framework and current research. The app reinforces your teaching rather than contradicting it.
Professional Boundaries Maintained
Clear disclaimers throughout the app emphasize that Gestalts is NOT a replacement for professional therapy. Parents are consistently directed to consult with you for clinical decisions.

Prominent Disclaimers
Every page includes clear disclaimers that Gestalts is not a substitute for professional speech therapy. Parents are consistently reminded to consult with you for clinical decisions.
AI Safety Guardrails
Our AI features provide educational information and general strategies, never personalised clinical advice. Content moderation ensures responses stay within appropriate boundaries.
Therapist-First Positioning
The app's core message is "Supporting your SLP's work during the time between appointments." We position ourselves as complementary to professional therapy, never as a replacement.
We want your input
Gestalts is in active development, and we're seeking input from SLPs who understand GLP and the Natural Language Acquisition framework. Your expertise can help us build a tool that truly supports, rather than undermines, your professional work.
If you're interested in being part of our clinical advisory network or beta testing the app with your clients, we'd love to hear from you.
