I would like to say thank you sharing your thoughts and experiences. I'm currently working on my Masters degree in Speech Language Pathalogy at the Western Carolina Universtiy. As a new clinician, I have many questions that come up as I "practice theory". After reading your article, I had an "ah-ha!" moment. I was finally able to see not only that my approach to therapy was tiresome to me and my clients but also why. I especially appreciate your comparison to the plane emergency: "what they tell you're on a plane traveling with a child...if the oxygen masks are deployed, what should you do? Put it on the child first? No...YOU put it on it first and then you'll be there to help your child". Thank you for a great advice!
