Description
Guest: Amanda Pericles, MS, CCC-SLP - In this episode, Michelle is joined by Amanda Pericles, MS, CCC-SLP (She/Her/Ella), a bilingual speech-language pathologist working in Charlotte, NC. Amanda, a Black Dominican-American daughter of immigrant parents and a simultaneous Spanish-English language learner engages in a crucial conversation today regarding her personal experiences as a member of the BIPOC speech-language pathology community. Our lived experiences in this profession, starting with our college journey, the application process into graduate school, the overwhelming juggling act of graduate coursework and clinical practicums, and applying for and surviving the clinical fellowship, all of it can leave a lasting impact on how we ultimately engage in the profession as “CCC-SLP.” However, research has consistently demonstrated that the lived experiences of our colleagues who are members of the BIPOC community are often fraught with additional challenges, such as academic literacy, challenges that clinical supervisors, faculty, and colleagues need to be aware of, as well as be prepared to offer strategies and support. Join in for this hour empowering hour to inspire future generations of SLPs.
