Ep 163: Effective Treatments for SSD & Managing SSD Overwhelm w/Klaire Brumbaugh

In this episode w/ Klaire Brumbaugh (IG: slpwithdr.b), the following topics are discussed:

  • Managing treatment overwhelm (all the SSD approaches!)

  • Choosing an SSD approach

  • Are we supposed to do these approaches as outlined in the studies? How do we implement them in the real world of therapy sessions?

Quotes

"Our jobs span as wide as we let them span, so as SLPs we really need to prioritize. Each year my focus gets narrower and narrower...as I protect myself, my work and my goals." Klaire

"It's impossible to replicate (research) studies. As somebody who does research...I know that I wouldn't have had 50 minutes twice a week to do this (approach). Klaire

"I think we need to understand and recognize that 100 trials (per session) isn't always attainable." Klaire
