Hey Friends~  Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) is a communication disorder that interferes with learning, understanding, and using language. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) in the USA says DLD “is one of the most common developmental disorders, affecting approximately 1 in 14 children in kindergarten.”  To add to the confusion, over the years, “DLD has also been called specific language impairment, language delay, or developmental dysphasia.”  Source:  https://www.nidcd.nih.gov/sites/default/files/Documents/health/voice/developmental-language-disorder.pdf Is your child struggling in school?  Not listening well?  &  Unable to communicate what they mean?   Today's guest, Lois Letchford, shares her story that led to connecting the dots for her son's understanding and learning in the presence of  Dyslexia, Developmental Learning Delay, and other developmental struggles.  She put away what was not working and used what her son was interested in.  She says, “Curiosity propagates in the brain in untold ways.”   She gives practical descriptions that you can use, whether you are a teacher or a parent, to help your children better.   This episode is a must listen for Parents, Educators, Child-care workers, Speech Pathologists,  and all those living or working with children!  Please share this episode with those who are!    Always cheering you on!  Dinalynn CONTACT the Host, Dinalynn:  hello@thelanguageofplay.com   ABOUT THE GUEST:   Lois Letchford's dyslexia came to light when she faced teaching her son, Nicholas. Examining her reading failure caused her to adapt and change lessons. The results were dramatic. Lois qualified as a reading specialist using her non-traditional background, multi-continental experience, and passion for assisting other failing students. Lois received teaching degrees in Australia, Texas, and a master's degree from SUNY, NY. Reversed: A Memoir is her first book.

So you have a patient with dysphagia…what do you immediately start considering? Diagnosis…comorbidities…past medical history…past surgical history…current diet recs… ☝️Those are the typical go-to “textbook” checklist items, but there are other incredibly important considerations that will affect how you evaluate and treat your patient. These considerations impact your clinical recommendations and what matters most to your patients - and they deserve to be honored. I'm talking about cultural and religious considerations in dysphagia - which is exactly what Michelle Weber Dehgan MA, CCC-SLP, BCS-S & Kiana Gardner MA, CCC-SLP dive into this on this week's episode of the Swallow Your Pride Podcast!

As SLPs, we work with a diverse range of children, including those who have experienced trauma. Child sexual abuse is a particularly devastating form of trauma that affects children across all racial and ethnic backgrounds. However, BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) children are disproportionately affected by child sexual assault and are less likely to receive the support they need. In this episode, I review a case study of a speech-language pathologists who fulfills her ethical responsibility in a sexual assault case as it effects the child's speech and language development. Listen in! Sexual Assault Disclaimer: If you or someone you know has been affected by sexual assault, know that you are not alone. There are resources and support available to you. The National Sexual Assault Hotline is available 24/7 and can provide confidential support and information. The number is 1-800-656-HOPE (4673). Additionally, local resources such as counseling services, victim advocacy centers, and healthcare providers can also provide support. We encourage you to seek help and support if you need it. Thank you for listening, and I hope that this episode has provided some valuable insights on addressing child sexual assault in BIPOC communities as an SLP.

There are countless opportunities built into a child's everyday life that could be used for support in language development. The best parts are that they won't even know they're working on these skills and they're fun! Today's guest is Stefanie Trenholme, a Speech and Language Pathologist and children's book author. In our conversation today, Stefanie explains some common misconceptions about speech and language development and disabilities. She describes the different areas of language development and the red flags that are often overlooked or misinterpreted. Did you know your daily routines could be used to help your child's language development? In this episode, Stefanie really digs into the topic. Be sure to listen to the end to also hear about Stefanie's fun book that can be used to enhance any child's language skills and boost their motivation to read.   Show Notes: [2:18] - There is a misconception about what Speech and Language Pathologists do. [4:27] - Red flags for language development can look different for different kids at different ages, but Stefanie shares some common ones. [5:52] - There are different areas of language development and for some children, they could be impacted in one area or all. [7:00] - Some red flags are overlooked by parents. [8:47] - Although there are different areas of language development, they are connected and often one area's deficit impacts other areas. [10:18] - Unaddressed language difficulties in young children can lead to behavior concerns as they are easily frustrated. [12:12] - Kids may have a difficult time sharing about their day. [13:27] - Language variation is another area of difficulty that is often overlooked. [14:51] - By the time a student is in high school, social language becomes more complex. [17:01] - Parents may not always see language difficulties when they happen most often at school. [18:45] - Executive functioning also plays a role. [20:50] - For all children, routines are great for language development. [22:46] - Kids won't know they are working on language skills because they are focused on their routine. [25:00] - There are so many opportunities in a week to hone in on skills in daily routines. [26:23] - Make the child an active participant in learning. [27:42] - Stefanie has written a children's book that parents can use to help with vocabulary and routines. [29:36] - It is a picture book typically for “little” kids, but picture books can easily be adapted to work with any age. [31:31] - Lola is a real dog and with her help, Stefanie demonstrates different language skills in a fun and motivational way. [33:17] - One more thing! Cooking together is great for language skills and executive functioning.   About Our Guest: Stefanie Trenholme is the owner of Trenholme Speech Therapy, a private pediatric practice in West Los Angeles.
