SLPTalk

SLPTalk A forum to share innovative speech-language therapy ideas among professionals using EBP to think outside the box. teacherspayteachers.com/store/SLP-Talk

This group is an updated extension to SLPTalk, the original list serve that I founded in 2001 to help SLPs support one another when I found myself flying solo as the only SLP in the district I was working in. SLPTalk was featured in the ASHA Leader and grew to over 1800 international members. A little about me... I am an ASHA certified Speech-Language Pathologist who truly loves my field and the opportunity to meet amazing colleagues sharing a passion for helping others. I love spending my days with the little ones in both my own family and my school family. They bring me so much joy and inspire me to become the best version of myself with their boundless energy and enthusiasm for learning.

👏Congratulations to all of the new SLP graduate students on beginning the next step of your exciting journey to become an SLP! It’s rigorous, no doubt, but so worth it!

Marleigh is continuing her journey at OSU, hence the OSU shout out. If you are a grad student (or professor), let us know so we can shout you out and celebrate you! It’s quite an accomplishment to make it to where you are. 😁

Meet the MA-SLP Class of 2028!

🚨Spoiler alert: The takeaway here isn’t the containers. See if the same thing stands out for you and let me know if you agree.

I can find Woody’s hat, a 1-inch Wonder Dog, and a random toy buried in a bin within seconds.

But somehow a full-size vehicle remains elusive.

Make it make sense. 😂🚗

My favorite girl in the world is transitioning to graduate school as she continues her journey to become an SLP 🩷 Watching her follow her heart and help others find their voice is the greatest gift. So proud of you always Marleigh! 🥰

Meet Milo. 🐾🐶

This sweet little guy is beginning his journey to become a therapy dog... and I already have a feeling he's going to make the world a little softer for the people who need it most. 🥰

The goal for Milo reaches far beyond just one setting.

We hope he'll someday volunteer in children's hospitals, schools, nursing homes, and alongside women and children who may need a little extra comfort, connection, and love.

💗 Because sometimes healing starts with the simplest things...

A calm presence.
A wagging tail.
A moment of feeling safe and seen.

As someone who spends my days helping children and families build connection through communication, this journey feels especially meaningful to me. 🫶

For now, we're focusing on the little things... training, trust, socialization, patience, and lots of puppy cuddles along the way.

I can't wait to share Milo's journey with all of you.

And for anyone who wants to take a deeper dive into all things Milo — including puppy training adventures and puppy cuteness overload - you can follow along on Instagram at

Social stories are powerful tools that help individuals with autism understand and navigate social situations by breaking them down into clear, step-by-step descriptions. These visual and verbal guides promote understanding, reduce anxiety, and foster communication skills. 🌟 We love using for great visuals with diversity! 🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒
