I am very excited to be co-teaching the Preschool Language Disorders course for Speech-Language Pathology students this fall. The class falls on Monday evenings, so I will still have all my appointment time slots on Wednesday afternoons and evenings, Thursday evenings, and Friday mornings and afternoons!

It’s been a great practice to review lecture material and meet with my fantastic colleague and co-teacher. Spending so much of my career dedicated to supporting children with augmentative and alternative communication has given me a lot of experience with preschoolers and I can’t wait to connect with students about it.

Prepping materials for an upcoming literacy group. All of the kids are either using AAC, or may use it in the future. Eddie the Elephant Has Something to Say was written by a dear friend of mine, and I can’t wait to share it with the group. Literacy is for everyone! 📚

I wanted to pop on and say THANK YOU to all the amazing families who have booked with me since I opened in March. It has been the best kind of whirlwind and I have loved these busy Wednesdays, Thursday nights, and Fridays. Not only have I learned about Kpop demon hunters, dinosaurs, Minecraft, Axolotls, and Disney princesses, but I’ve also had the immense privilege of watching clients make progress on their speech and communication goals. Looking forward to a full summer of speech therapy sessions!

My essential therapy tool is the iPad; it has so much versatility for a range of speech and language goals! Yesterday it was used to model home related vocabulary on a child’s AAC app (Proloquo2Go) and as biofeedback using the staRt app with a client working on shaping the /r/ sound.

Not shown here is it being used for tracking words we modelled during a treatment approach for late talkers, and also for documentation, booking appointments and billing insurance!

‼️ Did you know some insurance plans include speech therapy? I offer direct billing with a variety of insurance providers to help make speech-language services more accessible and stress-free. This picture is just a sample! Please note that individual coverage varies by plan.

Switch adapted toys are now added to our clinic for our clients exploring switch access or who benefit from a good toy hack! This could look like a child who struggles to apply the pressure to squeeze a stuffy, or can’t quite activate a tiny button on a toy with their fingers. Switches can be accessed with a whole hand, a foot, an elbow, a head, etc etc! Thank you to Makers Making Change for making play more accessible. If you’re not already familiar with their work, check them out at www.makersmakingchange.com.

AAC can support spoken language development. This is my little one using a screenshot of Proloquo2Go that we have on the fridge to ask for “cottage cheese”. She says “cheese” but is still learning to combine a variety of words in a way that others can understand. Visual supports reduce frustration and make communication successful while sounds in speech are still developing. Do you use communication visuals at home? What’s one way they’ve reduced frustration for your loved one? 🤔 Let us know in the comments! ⬇️
