#236: Strategies for Verbal Imitation

Autism Outreach

Play Episode Listen Later Jul 8, 2025 12:57


Welcome to Part 3 of my mini-series answering your burning questions! Today, we're diving into the topic of verbal imitation.When it comes to verbal imitation and echoic goals, context is everything. These goals must be functional and meaningful to the individual child in order to support communication development.As an SLP collaborating with a BCBA, and vice versa, rely on assessment tools and an SLP's robust training in speech to identify and shape functional goals. It's crucial that we plan and program with intention—otherwise, we risk discouraging a child from verbalizingThe key? Collaborate early and often. Assess together. Plan together. Use resources like the Autism IEP Goal Bank (don't miss the freebie!). Then, have the SLP on the team focus on those targeted words and move into collaboratively supporting generalization into the natural environment for a robust bank of words.Looking ahead to 2026, we're excited to explore communication disorders more deeply over at ABA Speech Connection. Stay tuned—because sometimes, you don't know what you don't know. #autism #speechtherapy What's Inside:Summer mini-seriesStrategy to work collaboratively as BCBA and SLPsVerbal imitation goals Communication developmentMentioned In This Episode:Verbal Imitation Guide (Hack #19) Join our ethics course Speech Membership - ABA Speech  ABA Speech: Home

In this installment of minisodes, we tackle a common AAC challenge: what happens when professionals don't agree? The BCBA recommends PECS, the SLP suggests a dynamic device… Now what? Welcome to the standard trial of non-collaborative chaos.There are plenty of barriers to AAC collaboration, but also practical steps that can lead to smoother teamwork. The first is building familiarity. AAC can feel overwhelming, but taking time to learn the basics makes collaboration more effective.One key reminder: the device belongs to the student. Everyone on the team should be working toward the same goal—supporting the individual's communication needs across their lifespan.Joint assessment can help, and tools like the free ALP AAC assessment offer a shared starting point. Another useful strategy is to assign a single person to program the device. This reduces confusion and ensures consistency.Most importantly, collaboration keeps families from being caught in the middle. When professionals work together, outcomes improve—for everyone involved.#autism #speechtherapy What's Inside:10-minute summer series.Free Assessment.Collaborating every step from assessment through intervention.Mentioned In This Episode:ALP AAC Assessment AAC course bundle Speech Membership - ABA Speech  ABA Speech: Home

Hi there, and welcome back to the Autism Little Learners podcast! I'm Tara Phillips, and today I'm joined by speech-language pathologist Alexandria Zachos for an amazing conversation all about Gestalt Language Processing. We talk about how our understanding of language development has evolved, the real struggles around prompt dependence, and why a child-led approach is so important—especially for Gestalt language processors. Alexandria shares so many helpful insights, including how we can better support these communicators by building authentic connections and honoring all the ways they express themselves. Whether you're a therapist, teacher, or parent, this episode is packed with practical strategies to encourage spontaneous language and support meaningful communication. I'm so excited for you to hear this one! Takeaways Gestalt Language Processing is a natural way of developing language. Many SLPs are unaware of Gestalt Language Development despite its long history. Prompt dependence often stems from traditional teaching strategies. Child-led therapy is essential for fostering spontaneous communication. Silence can be a powerful tool in therapy sessions. Acknowledging all forms of communication builds trust with children. Using a child's Gestalt can enhance engagement and communication. Therapists should focus on the child's interests to promote language use. It's never too late to shift from prompt dependence to child-led approaches. Building authentic relationships is key to effective communication. Bio Alexandria Zachos is the founder, clinical director, owner, and senior speech-language pathologist with Social Butterfly Inc. and Meaningful Speech® She has been a practicing SLP for 21 years and has worked extensively with gestalt language processors since 2016, utilizing Blanc's Natural Language Acquisition protocol. She educates SLPs, parents, and related professionals through her social media platforms, podcasts, blogs, and her internationally acclaimed courses on http://Meaningfulspeech.com/.

Description:What happens when a speech-language pathologist also stutters? Some Stutter, luh! Welcomes Robert Kurliand, a trilingual SLP, neuroscience enthusiast and a person who stutters, who brings a mix of clinical expertise and personal insight on STUTTERING! Join us to know more about Robert's refreshing perspective on stuttering treatment, emphasizing authentic communication, personalized therapy, and stuttering appreciation rather than just acceptance!Notes:In this thoughtful conversation, Robert talks about therapy that should focus on helping people who stutter become effective communicators, not necessarily fluent speakers. He values authentic communication and stuttering appreciation, suggesting PWS should celebrate the personal growth that comes from the journey. He also offers deep insight into the real-life emotional and psychological challenges faced by people who stutter. Robert emphasizes that PWS shouldn't let their stutter define or limit their career choices. Robert believes the field of speech therapy is broad, so deep specialization in stuttering is rare but needed. He also highlights the emotional aspect of stuttering—fear, shame, avoidance—that is often more impactful than the physical symptoms and SLPs need better tools, frameworks, and support to address these emotional layers effectively.As the conversation follows, we see a deeper reflection on acceptance vs. appreciation, and how changing the language we use to describe our stuttering journey can lead to greater authenticity and peace. While "acceptance" is often framed as the ultimate goal in therapy, the word "appreciation," is more empowering and less pressure-filled.Many people who stutter develop ingrained habits of avoiding difficult words, situations, or speaking altogether. He points to the concept of "avoiding avoidance" that encourage confronting these strategies only when they interfere with saying something important or meaningful. Because when core identity or values are at stake, avoidance can cost more than the stutter itself. He also has powerful reflections on self-disclosure, authenticity, and why owning our stutter can bring us closer to others.Mary Wood Episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3sgj6jrZaMA#Stuttering #SpeechTherapy #Neurodiversity #SomeStutterLuh #SLP #MentalHealth #Communication #fluency #acceptance #stutteringacceptance #stutteringawareness #stutteringappreciation #authenticity

In this episode, I had the absolute honor of speaking with Dr. Barry Prizant—renowned speech-language pathologist and author of the best-selling book Uniquely Human. We talked about how the field of autism education is shifting away from compliance-based approaches and moving toward more compassionate, relationship-centered models.  Dr. Prizant shared powerful insights about emotional regulation, storytelling, and the importance of truly listening to the lived experiences of autistic individuals. We also explored topics like non-speaking communication, the SCERTs model, and how collaboration among educators and families can create lasting change. This conversation left me feeling inspired and hopeful about the future of autism education, and I just know you will feel the same! Bio Barry M. Prizant, PhD, CCC-SLP is recognized as among the world's leading scholars on autism and as an innovator of respectful, person- and family-centered approaches. He is Director of Childhood Communication Services, Adjunct Professor of Communicative Disorders at the University of Rhode Island, and has fifty years of experience as an international consultant and researcher. Barry has published five books, 150 articles/chapters, and is co-author of The SCERTS Model, now being implemented internationally. He was a two-time featured presenter at the UN World Autism Awareness Day, with more than 1000 presentations internationally. Barry's book Uniquely Human: A Different Way of Seeing Autism (2022) is the best-selling book on autism since 2015, published in 26 languages and ranked by Book Authority as #1 of the “100 best books on autism of all time”. Barry co-hosts a podcast, Uniquely Human: The Podcast, with his friend, Dave Finch, an autistic audio engineer.

His book 'Uniquely Human' emphasizes storytelling and compassionate approaches to autism. Connecting with families and understanding their experiences is crucial for professionals. Reflective practice is essential for educators to improve their connections with students. Changing the narrative around autism is vital for acceptance and understanding. Evidence-based practices must consider the lived experiences of autistic individuals. Understanding autistic behaviors as human responses can lead to more effective support.  Evidence-based practice includes more than just peer-reviewed research. Parents' intuitions should be respected in therapeutic settings. Behavior analytic approaches often overlook emotional and social development. Compliance-based methods can lead to the dehumanization of autistic individuals. Building trust is essential for effective communication with children. Listening to autistic voices is crucial in shaping educational practices.

Becky started her private practice, Achieve Therapy, back in 2014. After business boomed during the pandemic, thanks to her teletherapy, she experienced a bit of sticker shock despite paying estimated taxes throughout the year. She decided to head in a new direction to help SLPs, OTs, and other small business owners understand their finances, maximize tax deductions, and more!In this episode, Becky shares financial tips for setting up your business to thrive financially, including what our community needs to know about tax savings! As a speech-language pathologist turned tax advisor, Becky has a unique perspective on problem-solving and empowering others to succeed. Her journey into tax advising began when she faced the challenges of understanding tax systems and deduction strategies for her own private practice. It became clear that many start-ups and small business owners needed tailored, accessible support in this area. Motivated by this, she earned her tax advising certification to help fill this gap. Now, Becky combines her passion for helping others with an expertise in tax advising to support small business owners. Her goal is to simplify financial complexities, assist in maximizing deductions, and help create effective business plans and growth strategies. By offering personalized guidance and practical implementation, she helps business owners gain the confidence and clarity they need to focus on what matters most: growing and thriving in their ventures.In Today's Episode, We Discuss:Bridging the gap between clinician and CEOExperiencing major growth during the pandemicWho Becky works with and what exactly she helps withTwo tax deductions SLPs may not know aboutCreating your own retirement plan so you can comfortably leave your job If Becky's story resonated with you and you're feeling curious (or maybe even a little panicked) about your finances, I highly recommend booking a free 15-minute discovery call with her at SpenceTaxAdvising.com.Whether you want to start a private practice or grow your existing private practice, I can help you get the freedom, flexibility, fulfillment, and financial abundance that you deserve.

From receiving a late diagnosis herself to navigating complex medical advice, Alex shares how she shifted from fear to confidence in parenting.  We dive into what it really means to trust your gut as a parent and honor the unique needs of each child. This heartfelt conversation explores the emotional ups and downs of advocating for autistic kids and highlights the power of intuition, self-advocacy, and community. You won't want to miss Alex's inspiring and relatable story. Bio Alex Lamoreaux is a late-diagnosed neurodivergent mom of three young boys and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background in addiction recovery and trauma treatment. After two of her sons were diagnosed with autism, she dove into learning—and unlearning—what it really means to support autistic children. Now in the thick of parenting and advocacy, Alex shares practical, real-life insights with honesty and heart, hoping to spark connection and offer support to fellow parents on similar journeys. Alex's TikTok Account https://www.tiktok.com/@alex.lamx?_t=ZT-8xBXQBH46la&_r=1 Takeaways Late diagnosis can provide clarity and reduce shame over past differences. Parents often feel overwhelmed by the amount of information available. Shifting from panic to empowerment is crucial in parenting. Each autistic child is unique and requires different interventions. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to autism. Trusting parental instincts is essential for effective parenting. You do not have to fill your child's day with therapy. Trust your gut feelings about your child's needs. Parents often know their children best, despite professional opinions. Medical professionals may not always have the latest information on autism. Advocating for your child can be challenging, but it is essential. Bringing a list to meetings can help parents stay focused. Cognitive dissonance is common when navigating medical advice. Parents should feel empowered to change providers if necessary. Finding clarity amidst overwhelming information is crucial for parents.

It's super important that we take care of ourselves in between all that giving, otherwise we'll find ourselves on the fast track to burnout.That's why this conversation about self-care for SLPs matters so much. The only way you can show up for others is by showing up for yourself; you have to fill that bucket of energy before it's empty, and that's what we're talking about in this episode!In this episode, Marisha and Laura discuss:Why self-kindness and self-care are individual journeysHow you can pour into your self-care bucket throughout the dayWays that Marisha and Laura practice self-careWhy getting curious is an important part of the self-care processGetting off the hamster wheel of ineffective self-care (that actually make you feel worse!)Resources Mentioned:Fill a Bucket: A Guide to Daily Happiness for Young ChildrenFull show notes at slpnow.com/221
