Conversations In Speech PathologyCSP 067: Transgender Discrimination in CSD ProgramsYou may remember Dr. Charles Lenell (pronouns: they/them) from episode 49 (The Doctoral Shortage). Dr. Lenell is back to discuss an online petition they filed with change.org. The gist of the petition: LGBTQ students at some colleges and universities face discrimination due to a loophole afforded by 'religious exemption.' The petition asks for transparency so potential students can better decide which programs will meet their needs.
Essential to this conversation is an understanding of the role of the Council on Academic Accreditation (CAA) as well as what protections Title IX provides in theory and practice.2023-01-1343 minConversations In Speech PathologyCSP 066: AmbikiThe growing adoption of teletherapy will inevitably lead to a broader selection of online platforms for providers.

Conversations In Speech PathologyCSP 064: Preventing Burnout with Expanded PracticeEvery therapist I've ever met has dealt with feelings of burnout from time to time. From productivity pressures to feelings of imposter syndrome, we all struggle to make sense of it all as the years of practice fade into the background. We must regularly take stock of our own emotions and beliefs to prevent the big "B."
Danielle Stoller is a physical therapist who did experience burnout. The subject of today's episode is how she dealt with that hopelessness and found answers to re-establish her passion and drive for her patients. Her journey was made possible with...2022-05-0445 minConversations In Speech PathologyCSP 063: Jill Escher (National Council on Severe Autism)Jill Escher is president of the National Council on Severe Autism (NCSA), an organization formed over two years ago by a group of parents looking to raise awareness and advocate for autistic individuals with more severe manifestations of autism. The NCSA has been sounding the alarm bells regarding the lack of societal preparedness for the magnitude of young adults leaving the educational system at 21. They address complex issues without pulling punches—housing, therapy interventions, mental health, guardianship, and the neurodiversity movement are all covered through a combination of position statements, webinars, and powerful blog pieces.

Miriam is both a certified speech-language pathologist and a social worker. Why the dual degrees? From the start, Miriam was keenly interested in working in the social cognition space. But she felt her slp training did not give her everything she needed at the time.
You'll hear about Miriam's journey as well as her philosophy of empowering both teachers and students to choose who they wish to be in this moment and the next.

It’s called Speech Sound Disorders: Comprehensive Evaluation & Treatment. Please check out our earlier episode if you haven't already (which covers her use of the complexity approach).
In today's episode, Kelly discusses why she wrote the book and how the everyday clinician should utilize it. What I like about Kelly's book is that it includes discussions about children with autism spectrum disorder as well as other developmental delays. And she includes nonspeaking children as well!
Important aspects of Kelly's approach come from other disciplines like occupational th...2021-04-131h 20

Conversations In Speech PathologyCSP 055: ExpressableCOVID-19 seems to have accelerated our adoption of teletherapy. Expressable, a speech-therapy teletherapy company launched last year (what timing), is well-positioned to ride this wave. But to me, what sets them apart is their straightforward business model. Joining me in this episode is one of the founders of Expressable, Leanne Sherrod, MS/CCC-SLP. You can find Expressable's website here.2020-07-0635 min

Yes, I’m delving into the world of RPM (Rapid Prompting Method), a controversial approach to educating and opening up the possibility of authentic communication among individuals with autism. We’re talking letter boards, torn paper, the whole works! The centerpiece of my story is Benjamin, a teenager whose life has been changed by using RPM.
