Introduction
In this episode, I am joined by Kaitlin Mulcahey, a Pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist and owner of Competent Communicators, LLC, as we discuss how to provide neurodiversity-informed therapy for Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) and Gestalt Language Processing (GLP) learners.
Neurodiversity-Informed Approaches
Caitlin shares her experiences and tips on incorporating neurodiversity-informed approaches into therapeutic practices, using AAC with GLPs, and recommendations for new AAC therapists and parents of AAC users. She also touches on the importance of family goals, practical resources, and the process of AAC evaluation.
