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!!

Lateral Lisp Cues Free

Have you been looking for something to support you when treating a lateral production of /s/ – a distortion error that can spark uncertainty in even the most experienced SLP? Visual cues can be invaluable tools when treating speech sound disorders, particularly when working on /s/ articulation differences.

However, most cues only show the correct production vs. providing children with a visual of what they are actually doing. 

Free lateral lisp cues

Our Lateral Lisp visual is an engaging cue for children working on the change in airflow required when moving a lateralized /s/ production closer to a /s/ that has central airflow.

The airflow features on this visual cue show the child how the air is escaping out the sides when they say their /s/.  Contrast that with the central airflow visual (also included in the free download) so the child understands what you are asking them to do.

Incorporating the Lateral Lisp visual into therapy promotes the child’s self-awareness and engagement and provides an easy way to explain to parents and educators what is happening to the child when they say /s/.
