A month or so ago, I saw a post on Instagram from Jordyn Carroll (jrc_theslp) where she talked about the need for more SLPs to discuss what we’re paid. I agreed and decided to dig through the archives and share my exact salaries for the first 5 years I was an SLP. Now, just to […]

I wanted to take a step back from my usually speech/language blog posts to chat about something I love very much: fonts, especially accessible fonts. 😂 For the past 8+ years, I’ve spent a significant amount of my time designing and developing printable resources for SLPs. In that time, I’ve learned a ton and have […]

One question I get frequently when I talk about AAC implementation is where SLPs can find high quality, low tech AAC boards. I’ve been sharing these links over and over in emails to other SLPs and thought I’d compile them all in one place to make it super easy to find what you’re looking for. […]

My Summer Bucket List Ideas Travel! Go somewhere new, even if it’s camping somewhere nearby for a weekend. Prep larger […]

I shared out a summer reading list last year and it was a hit so I thought I’d share my list for this summer! This summer’s list is a bit longer as I have more trips planned (which being honest, is the only time I can sit for hours and read!). If you’re really perceptive, […]

For the past couple of years, I’ve really loved printing various visual supports for my therapy sessions onto Post It notes. They’re great because I can stick them in student notebooks, directly onto assignments, and they’re disposable! This hack helps me keep my therapy material organization simple and organized for each student. I’ve gotten a […]

Need some productivity tips? People are losing their ability to focus due to the distraction heavy culture we live in today. In the past decade or so, I’ve learned a ton about productivity. I’ve almost gotten obsessed with it at times due to necessity. While getting my undergrad degree, I worked nearly full time for […]

Lately, there seems to be an influx of online SLP tools. It can be hard to decide what is worth paying for or not so I thought I’d share my thoughts on my all-time favorites. I pay for these all out of pocket and have found them all to be worth the cost. After playing […]
