13 May Congratulations Breanna Waldrup, MS, CCC-SLP!
Congratulations to Breanna Waldrup, MS, CCC-SLP, for graduating from the Apraxia Kids Intensive Training Institute (Apraxia Boot Camp)!
Breanna Waldrup, MS, CCC-SLP is a speech-language pathologist, the owner of Apraxia Dallas, PLLC and the volunteer coordinator for the North Texas Walk for Apraxia. She is recognized by Apraxia Kids for Advanced Training and Expertise in Childhood Apraxia of Speech. Breanna began specializing in CAS in 2012 when she started working at Apraxia Dallas, which she took ownership of in 2016. Since joining Apraxia Dallas, Breanna has successfully treated dozens of children with motor speech disorders, including suspected CAS, CAS, dysarthria, and mixed CAS/dysarthria. Breanna has attended numerous continuing education courses on motor planning disorders including the Apraxia Kids Intensive Training Institute (aka “Boot Camp”) in 2018. Breanna has completed the Advanced Course in Clinical Thinking in the Diagnosis of Management of CAS by Edythe Strand, PhD (the creator of DTTC) twice, the pilot program in 2016 and again in 2019. Breanna attended the 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 Apraxia Kids conferences. Breanna has presented at a number of conferences on the diagnosis and treatment of CAS, including the 2017 and 2018 Apraxia Kids conferences, the 2016 ASHA conference, and the 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 TSHA conferences. She is scheduled to co-present 3 sessions at the 2019 Apraxia Kids conference. Breanna has been the Walk Coordinator for the North Texas Walk for Apraxia since 2017. Breanna believes strongly that every child has the right to communicate and strives to help each child she works with to find their voice.
Apraxia Kids: If you were to state the #1 thing you learned from this training experience, what would that be?
Breanna: The most valuable thing I gained from this experience was connections to other speech-language pathologists with similar interests and expertise.
Apraxia Kids: Tell us about any relationships that you formed through the training experience.
Breanna: I developed closer relationships with both mentors and other boot campers that I rely on in my professional life.
Apraxia Kids: Have you served as a local resource/information source for other professionals and families since attending the intensive training?
Breanna: I have not served in additional ways since the training. Prior to the training and continuing into the present, I coordinate the North Texas Walk, present sessions at the Texas State Speech-Language Pathology conference and Apraxia Kids conference, and act as a resource for consulting and collaborating with other speech-language pathologists in the community.
Apraxia Kids: What would you say to someone considering applying to boot camp next year?
Breanna: It’s a lot of work but it helped me to make new connections in the apraxia community and helped me to think about some of my clients in new ways.
