Description

Get .1 ASHA CEU hereWow.  Nina Reeves comes to us by way of a listener request, and we are doubly grateful!  Thank you to our listener for bringing our attention to such a fantastic resource, and so many thanks to Nina Reeves for being generous with her time and knowledge!  Those of you who are regular listeners know that fluency is one of the areas Kate and Amy identify when talking about Scope of Practice versus Scope of Competence (namely that we’d both have an awful lot of professional development to do if we were needing to provide clinical services for a fluency client).  That didn’t matter here!  Nina provided us with valuable information regarding assessment considerations, principles to consider when planning therapy, and techniques for helping clients improve observable speech fluency.  That’s not all - she engaged us in thoughtful conversations and posed questions that made us consider our current clinical work even though we do not currently have any clients working on speech fluency.  She also made us feel comfortable and confident that we could learn what we would need to do to provide effective therapy in this area of the field.  Tune in to this one if you are looking to learn more about school age fluency assessment and intervention, but also tune in if you aren’t.  We suspect, like us, you will walk away thinking deep thoughts and asking yourself questions that just might enhance your practice anyway.Nina Reeves, M.S. CCC-SLP, BCS-F is a board-certified specialist in fluency disorders. You can learn more about Nina here.Learning Outcomes1. Describe best practice for fluency assessment2.
