I have been practicing as an SLP for four years. I have extensive experience in working with children who have receptive and expressive language disorders, motor speech disorders, and speech sound disorders. I've also had success stories with stammering in teenagers.
I currently work in an ICU setting as a dysphagia specialist. I'm responsible for screening and evaluating post stroke and intubated patients for aphasia, Dysarthria and dysphagia.
In my clinical practice, the one thing I've seen play itself out is empathy. No matter how many techniques and therapeutic intervention one knows or is experienced in, it is the human experience and sensibility that matters in the end.
My sole reason for making a profile here is because I miss working with children. I don't take many patients, because it affects the quality of therapy and effort that a therapist puts in.
If you have any queries, do not hesitate to get in touch. I like to take my time in getting to know the patient/client in all aspects and then proceed with an individualised plan.
