Extending Therapy Beyond the Clinic: How AI Strengthens Home-Based Learning

Every therapist knows that developmental progress doesn’t stop when a child leaves the clinic. In fact, for children with autism, ADHD, Down syndrome, and other developmental challenges, what happens at home is just as important as what happens in therapy.  

Consistent daily practice, reinforcing the skills learned in therapy, is essential for meaningful progress. 

Research clearly shows that when therapy continues at home under the guidance of parents or caregivers, children are more likely to retain what they learn and reach new milestones faster. 

For instance, a 2020 study in Research in Developmental Disabilities found that parent-implemented interventions significantly improved communication and adaptive behaviors in children with autism spectrum disorder (source). 

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) also emphasizes that early and intensive intervention, especially when delivered in natural environments like the home, leads to better cognitive and behavioral outcomes (source). 

Additionally, a review published in Autism Research confirmed that telehealth and digital therapy tools effectively support both families and therapists in managing ASD and other neurodevelopmental disorders (source). 

Why Enara? 

Yet many families struggle to maintain therapy routines at home—and therapists often have limited visibility into what happens between sessions. 

That’s where technology steps in. And that’s where Enara makes a difference. 

Enara’s AI-powered digital platform brings therapy into the home. Designed by certified therapists, it offers structured, customizable, and evidence-based programs that make home practice both effective and engaging. 

Enara helps therapists and parents work together to support children in reaching key developmental milestones. 

Its interactive games—each designed to take no more than 20 minutes—respond to a child’s reactions in real time. These games, developed by expert occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, and ABA professionals, use AI to track a child’s gaze, gestures, movements, and voice. 

When a child successfully completes a task, the system instantly rewards them with fun visual effects like confetti bursts, stars, or animations. These positive reinforcements encourage children to repeat tasks and thus help them master specific skills over time.
