TOP 15 Therapy Pitfalls: CAS
2 hour video course
Common pitfalls speech-language pathologists and parents make when trying to help a child with CAS can be avoided! Over the years, while working with families, therapists, and students, I have had the opportunity to compile the most common unknowns or mistakes made when it comes to a motor based therapy approach. This presentation will cover the TOP 15 pitfalls in CAS treatment and how simple changes can change the direction of therapy and progress. These evidence-based tips will immediately change how therapists and parents think about their approach and decision making in therapy. Participants will leave with "AH-HA" moments and avoid these pitfalls when treating CAS. Join us for a fun, interactive session!
Learning Objectives
- Participants will choose functional targets to support a motor planning approach for CAS.
- Participants will conduct cueing strategies to support a motor planning approach.
- Participants will explain ways to focus on movement rather than sounds for CAS therapy.
- Participants will walk away and be able to immediately implement appropriate treatment strategies when treating childhood apraxia.
