It’s been interesting straddling both sides of speech therapy: 

Being a speech pathologist who only treats speech sounds
AND being a parent of a child with speech difficulties.

It has sure changed how I speak to and train parents, has allowed me to adjust my expectations, and be more compassionate and understanding of how the challenges!

Are you someone on both sides?

You learn bite-sized speech stuff from me EVERY DAY 🤗 Imagine how far you will grow clinically as an SLP when you learn for four hours with me!!!

I ♥️ minimal pairs - COMMENT “master” and let’s just go on this adventure where you finally nail at least one phonological intervention!

Have you experienced this? A cue that works for one student won’t work for another?

Instead of trying to make a cue fit a child, I’m more about being flexible and guided by the child and how they learn!

This means I need to know lots of cues, and match the right ones to each of my kids. Agree… disagree…. Other thoughts??

Comment “master” because you at least need to know how in-depth this course is… and how much you really don’t know about minimal pairs!!!

So, make 2025 the year you really master a phonological intervention 👊🏽💪🏼👌

If I can admit that there was a LOT I didn’t know about the minimal pairs approach… can you?

Combining the evidence with 18 years clinical experience, I want this to be the last PD you’ll ever have to take on this therapy approach.

We have tips, tips, and more tips!!!! If this cue doesn’t work to encourage a clear “ch”, don’t forget we wrote the Ch Sound Handbook where you can find 100+ more ideas 💡

All it takes is 5-10 minutes to screen for possible facilitative contexts (words that encourage a clear production of our target sound), but this can set you up for INSTANT success!

If you took my free SLP Summit talk, then you saw these screeners in action! Why waster weeks and months with no progress when it doesn’t have to be that way?

We’ve bundled and discounted our THERAPY CHANGING facilitative contexts packets to get faster progress in articulation therapy 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

If you watched by free SLP Summit presentation, then you’d know how quickly the students in my case studied progressed when we found words that encouraged clear sounds!!

  • Hi, my name is Luzanne and I am an SLP student from South Africa. I just LOVE your website and find your resources so handy when I have to give therapy. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely work. Good luck with the travels and making a difference as you go along 🙂

  • Hi, Allow me to congratulate you for such a brilliant website. I have found it to be of invaluable help for my son who has speech and language delay. Do you have any material related to Sequential Picture Cards? I have spent hours trawling the internet but have managed to come across only very limited material. Thanks in advance. Christine

    • Hi Christine,

      I too have been on a hunt for sequential picture cards. My program doesn’t really allow me to make them so that they are really good, so I have either taken out my camera and photographed common sequences, or in some places that I have worked I have their photographic sequence cards. Some kids really love to be a part of – and photographed in a sequence. With so many photographic apps out there, I’m sure that there will be one that allows you to lay them in a sequence or you can just swipe to the next picture. That way you can tailor it to the sequences that your son needs to learn and are important in his routines.
      Sorry I couldn’t be of more help.

      • Hi! This is an *extremely* late response to this considering the first messages were in 2013, but I just thought I’d mention the teaching website, Twinkl, which has some nice sequencing resources… I think this is what you were after 🙂

  • Thank you Rebecca for being so generous with such fabulous resources. The kids love the articulation boardgames and they really help to make therapy fun.

  • So all of the links in the language sections for school worksheet kick back an error code.

    • Well that’s not fun – let me investigate. I’ve had some site updates recently!
