97: The One About Serving the LGBTQIA+ Community with Greta Abbott
Listen to the podcast here
In this episode I am joined by Greta Abbott, a queer-identified SLP who has lived and worked in Georgia for 7 years. She is passionate about voice therapy for transgender and gender-diverse people, and desires to specialize in this area one day.
Topics/Questions:
1) Basic LGBTQIA+ terminology you need to know as an SLP
2) The time I reported someone to HR in my hospital practicum (and why)
3) Transgender voice therapy
4) Online resources and accounts to follow (LGBTQIA+ advocates and allies)
