Taking advantage of the gorgeous fall weather here in Northern Virginia on a cognitive-communication wellness walk

Chosen because the client loves this lake walk, and we incorporated trained strategies to support verbal communication and social connection in a meaningful community setting 🙌

Rain or shine, person-centered every time 🤩

It seems so obvious, but a session yesterday took me by surprise 😮

My client’s weather app turned out to be a time capsule, a treasure chest of important locations he visited in the time before his stroke…

⚽️ to attend a championship soccer match
🏝️ to relax on the beach
🥰 to visit family
🏢 to do business

Our original intent was to see what the weather forecast for his wife’s upcoming girls trip 🌧️, we engaged speech and writing and gesture to reminisce about his days of fun and meaningful travel

The weather is critical to small talk and social connection! And like all good stimuli, it is a launchpad to build and expand conversations 💬

🧠📖 True story:

My client with dementia is a Holocaust survivor, with a long history of sharing his story as a museum docent and speaker so

During our therapy course, we collaborated to make a memory book to keep these memories alive; we used photos and simplified language to keep the book accessible as his brain continues to change

That was 3 years ago.

Yesterday, his wife emailed me:

“You will be happy to know that while he is no longer walking and only recognizes me, he is reading the book daily, sometimes for an hour. Thank you for preserving his memories.”

Sigh. What a gift to learn this! It’s not on a shelf; it is in his hands. Every day. Keeping his memory within reach.

I love a webinar, but sometimes we just need to talk it out with a mentor who’s been there, done that, and gives you the resources and encouragement you need

I’m hosting a live session on Cognitive Communication Disorders with Gap Education to do just this.

Bring your questions, challenging cases, or anything you’ve been thinking through related to cognitive-communication assessment or treatment. I’d love to have you join us Wednesday, September 16, at 7 PM EDT. Since I’m hosting, I get to bring friends. Comment “Cog” below for access!

BONUS: My followers free access to Chris Sapienza’s RMST session!

See link for the Learning Pass in my Education Highlights. The code “learnsept” works for both sessions

It’s Schwabish x 2 🤗

If you’re an SLP or a policymaker, understanding how to make information accessible is essential 👊

Give this ep a listen! There’s a ton of my favorite resources for creating person centered cognitive communication tools and a call to action to make more health data aphasia-friendly!

Thanks always to my honey Jon Schwabish for supporting the work of SLPs

When aphasia ➡️ 🥰

I had the great pleasure to hug Michelle Huhti Humphrey IN REAL LIFE today 🤗

She is one of the most inspiring stroke survivors I’ve met, brings her gifts of wit, perseverance, and encouragement to anyone newly navigating stroke life and aphasia, especially in our Parenting with Aphasia group

In a quick stop between college drop off and catching a flight home, I got a garden tour and saw her most incredible creative FREE ART dispenser in the front yard 🎨🖌️ Follow her work; a testament to the healing power of art

Gratitude as always to National Aphasia Association 🤩

Neuro Speech Services is 5! 🥳

🗺️ Reason #8,275 why real world tools are better than worksheets: MAPS!

In just the past two weeks, I’ve had huge wins using maps with clients with all types of aphasia: Non-fluent, fluent, and primary progressive! Especially helpful as a Communication Breakdown Repair strategy 🙌

Do you use maps in therapy?

While all ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reviews are special, this one is a reminder of why people living with dementia can benefit from skilled person-centered therapy 🙌

Back in my inpatient rehabilitation days, I was quick to see a diagnosis of dementia and dismiss the potential for recovery ✌🏻

Private practice taught me otherwise. This client established her priorities, we collaborated on communication tools, and engage in meaningful and successful conversations that highlight her strengths and make her feel confident and understood.

Blessings all around! 🙏
