family engagement

The digital platform clarifies treatment for your client's support system, empowering holistic involvement by facilitating communication, visibility, and adherence.

 

About 70% of the work we need to do is outside of session, and only 30% is in session. That's a big difference of time where we want to apply the exercises and practices we’re using in session. It's helpful to use Manatee to bridge that gap.

get clients started

Manatee’s digital platform enables you to keep families engaged between sessions.

The platform is designed specifically to support ages 6-17 years with goal setting for behavior or mood regulation as part of their treatment plan.

By integrating Manatee into your practice, therapy becomes more effective, cost efficient and patient centric.

easy onboarding

  1. Go to the invite page in your dashboard, and select the account you would like to create for your client.

  2. To create a standalone account, enter the email address of your client. For family accounts, enter the email of their caregiver. 

  3. Click Send! Manatee automatically sends an email to take care of the rest.

standalone & family accounts

Family account setups are best for fully integrating caregiver(s) in children’s therapy experiences. Family accounts enable caregivers to have visibility into children’s treatment plans and access to manage goals and rewards.

Standalone accounts are best for independent communication between you and your client without caregiver involvement.

Click “invite” to select the appropriate account type.

 Manatee has been a lifesaver in our household. I love that I can see when each kid completes an activity. The kids also love collecting their points and earning rewards! Therapy doesn't really feel like a ‘chore’ anymore.
