Frequently Asked Questions
Services offered
It entirely depends on your school’s needs. When appropriate, we can also support small group sessions up to two students. But, again, we customize and tailor the services based on your students’ needs.
We serve pre-K-12 students. Equivalency studies support virtual psychoeducational assessments for students ages seven and up. For Speech and Language therapy and behavioral/mental health counseling, we start at ages 5+.
Given that all sessions are virtual, it’s essential to have the equipment needed for successful sessions. Students join sessions from a laptop or desktop computer. However, we ask that you use a Google Chrome web browser and ensure a stable internet connection. For assessments, you must use a laptop computer and an external mouse.
Research has been conducted on how to conduct remote assessments (tele-assessments) in a reliable and valid way. Parallel conducts tele-assessments in alignment with the research support, taking extra care to ensure valid results. As long as a student has a good internet connection and a quiet and private space on their side, tele-assessment data are a valid reflection of their current functioning.
All of our services are with live-online providers. In addition, we provide tangible materials which coincide with the services offered. For example, we provide a testing kit that accompanies the psychoeducational process. Finally, our services are individualized for each student, helping them succeed in school, work, home, and all aspects of life.
Our Chief Clinical Officer, Dr. A. Jordan Wright, is a leading Child and Adolescent Psychologist based at NYU. With Dr. Wright’s leadership, we have established exclusive partnerships with some of the most widely used testing publishers, such as Riverside and Pearson. In addition, our clinicians have extensive experience working with students in virtual settings and have performed thousands of online assessments. Our providers use evidence-based practices and are licensed in the same state as their students.

Providers
Legally students need to have some sort of general supervision. However, you know your students best; some may require direct supervision. We would be happy to share some of the most accessible and creative ideas districts have come up with.
Yes, absolutely. Our providers will parallel the exact role of an in-person provider.
On a state-by-state basis, we can provide supervision for SLPAs.
Parallel providers are licensed and credentialed in each state. We verify providers through an intensive interview and vetting process. All of our providers undergo an intensive onboarding and training process. In addition, we allow schools to review providers to ensure they are the right fit for your team.
