I believe a child's success in therapy is dependent upon their relationship with me and their trust in me during our sessions together. I also believe that success in therapy is highly dependent upon family participation and willingness to incorporate therapy techniques and suggestions into daily home life. I work hard to form a positive relationship with my clients, as well as their families, in order to get the best possible outcome. When working with a child with CAS, we focus on drill work targeting the motor movements of stimuli words chosen carefully for the individual child (based on the child's severity, vowel errors and sounds in the child's inventory). It is important to get the caregiver's involvement in the stimuli word set because I want them to be functional for that child as well. Despite the sessions being 'work', it is always my goal to keep my time with each child fun and exciting!
