The Secondary SLP Roadmap Episode 2

from The SLP Book Club

In this episode we discuss chapter three of The Secondary SLP Roadmap by Hallie Sherman, which focuses on where to start when working with secondary students and how to set meaningful therapy goals. We talk about how shifting toward functional, real world communication goals can help therapy feel more relevant for middle and high school students. This chapter encourages SLPs to look at the bigger picture of student needs and prioritize skills that support academic success, independence, and future planning. We also discuss strategies for deciding what to target first when students have multiple areas of need. If you have ever felt overwhelmed trying to prioritize goals on a secondary caseload, this conversation offers practical ideas and reassurance.
