SLP Resources and Support

---

The Talking Place occasionally offers trainings and classes.  We also have developed presentations on specific topics of interest for both school districts and therapy contracting companies.  

• Stuttering and Neurodiversity
• Writing Measurable Stuttering Goals in the Schools
• Solution-focused Venting
• Coaching in Speech Therapy
• Metaphors and Analogies in Stuttering Therapy
• Qualification for Stuttering in the Schools and the Dreaded 5% Rule
• Caregiver Support
• Current Research in the Stuttering World

Contact us if your organization could use some specialized training in stuttering, cluttering, fluency disorders, or counseling and coaching students and their families.

The reality is, most Speech Language Pathologists (SLPs) do not feel confident in their ability to assess and treat stuttering, cluttering, and fluency disorders. 

I have worked in school districts for over a dozen years, both as an on-the-ground SLP and in leadership and consulting roles. 

Because the majority of SLPs feel stress and a lack of confidence when assessing and treating stuttering and fluency disorders, I have begun to offer district-level support in this area.

  School districts and special education cooperatives can ensure that their SLPs are confidently making decisions about qualification, evidence-based treatment approaches, and dismissal. 

 From child-find meetings to due process paperwork, SLPs will feel supported through trainings and individual consultations. 

Wondering if we can support your district? You  can sign up for a free 30-minute consult here.

We regularly produce and send a newsletter with useful information and resources, for our clients, SLPs we support, and anyone interested in what we do here at The Talking Place. 

You will find articles related to stuttering, cluttering, and fluency disorders, as well as more general communication wellness topics. 

We introduce some of our favorite resources that we use in the clinic, and include information about current events that may be of interest to our community.

This free resource arrives in your in-box about once a month and you can unsubscribe at any time.

The SLP Community Circle is a group of  Speech Language Pathologists who own or manage private practices who get together regularly to support and encourage each other.  

We believe we are better connected than competing.

We meet monthly online and occasional in person in the greater Minneapolis/St. Paul area. 

Reach out if you'd like to visit one or our monthly meetings and see how we collaborate and support our community.
