2. How to Regression-Proof Your Speech Therapy: Max Progress in Less Time

One of the biggest challenges in speech therapy isn’t just making progress — it’s preventing regression when therapy time is inconsistent, attendance drops, or outside factors cut into your sessions. The truth is, children can lose hard-won skills quickly if we don’t structure therapy to be efficient, challenging, and resilient.In this episode of the Preschool SLP Podcast, Kelly Vess shares how to “regression-proof” your therapy by focusing on the principles that drive the greatest gains in the least amount of time. Drawing on parallels from personal training and neuroscience, she explains why challenge creates change and how to work smarter when minutes are limited.What You’ll Learn:Why complex treatment targets accelerate progress more than simple, step-by-step goals.How to use maximum scaffolding to support success without watering down the challenge.The secret to working multiple systems simultaneously (speech, language, vocabulary, attention) for exponential impact.Why strengthening attention unlocks spontaneous gains in language, behavior, and socialization.Kelly breaks down exactly how to select goals, scaffold therapy, and design sessions that withstand setbacks — so children keep moving forward, not backward.💡 If you’re ready for weekly, educationally rich, empirically based, and ready-for-use therapy activities designed to maximize progress while preventing regression, the SIS Membership is for you.👉 Join SIS today at www.kellyvess.com/sis
