Season 3 - Episode 1: Throwing Away the 'Get Out Of Jail Free Card'
Ellen Kelly, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, BCS-F of Vanderbilt University joins Sara MacIntyre, M.A., CCC-SLP for our first episode of Season 3!

They discuss foundational rationale to help get individuals and families 'on board,' why the 'wait for fluency' approach to tackle challenging communication situations is flawed and harmful, and they lay out a pathway for creating and celebrating small steps or successes in a solution-focused, strength-based manner that supports this, often difficult, shift.
