#278: The Importance of Parent Support When Providing Therapy with Khaliah Moody

Strong therapy starts with strong support, and that begins with the parent.I’m joined by Khaliah Moody, and this conversation really stayed with me. We talk about what it truly looks like to support families in a meaningful way, especially when life outside of sessions includes real challenges like poverty, housing instability, and stress. Khaliah shares how her background in social work shaped the way she leads her clinic and supports both clients and staff. One of the biggest takeaways is that therapy cannot thrive if the parent is overwhelmed and unsupported. We have to meet families where they are, build real relationships, and focus on connection before intervention.We also get into staff retention, building a positive team culture, and how community partnerships can extend impact far beyond traditional services. This is a powerful reminder that compassionate care is both clinical and human.#autism #speechtherapyWhat’s Inside:Why parent support is the foundation of effective therapyHow to build trust and connection with familiesCreative ways to support and retain your teamMentioned In This Episode:Steady Strides Behavior SolutionsKhaliah Moody on LinkedInEarn CEUs with a community of peers.
