"Revolutionize your speech therapy approach with insights from Deb Roy's 'Human Speechome Project'!"

This landmark study on language acquisition offers invaluable insights for speech pathologists. One of the key findings is the significance of consistent, repetitive word exposure in familiar settings for effective language learning. By sharing these insights with parents, therapists can encourage them to incorporate these strategies at home, maximizing the impact of therapy.

Roy's research also highlights the "vocabulary explosion," a phenomenon where children experience rapid language growth once foundational skills are established. By understanding this concept, speech pathologists can better tailor their approach to each child's developmental stage.

Incorporating these evidence-based insights into your practice can lead to more effective, targeted care, fostering successful language development in young patients.

Remember: Trauma is not about the event itself but how someone reacts to the event.

An example of a trauma-informed mindset: If a child is having a temper tantrum after not getting his way, think, "how can I help this child self-regulate?" rather than, "what is wrong with this child? (in a judgement tone)" Reframing our mindsets go a long way! I'll be putting out more information on the Pediatric Speech Sister Show!

Another way we can cultivate a trauma-informed mindset when working with diverse populations is to recognize that trauma looks different for different people. For example, what's traumatic for a child may be different than what's traumatic for an adult. Regardless, we should approach this child with care and take their traumatic reactions seriously and valid.

Although SLPs should consider the impact of trauma when working with multicultural populations, we should always know when to REFER. Do not stay out of our scope of practice. You can refer to the scope of practice here: https://www.asha.org/policy/sp2016-00343/

One way we can cultivate a trauma-informed mindset is to educate ourselves on how regulate our nervous systems!
