I’ve actually found that my virtual treatment room is as helpful and motivating for in-person appointments as it is for the online ones! I update my room with new pictures and links each month and lately I’ve been using themes. This month was superheroes! Click here to visit my June virtual treatment room and click …
I’ve made re-usable monthly themes that will help me maximize my time and energy and I’ve applied these themes to my virtual treatment room. I started making these during the COVID-19 lockdown, but I’ve actually found that they’re as helpful and motivating for in-person appointments as they are for the online ones! I’ll update my …

I use this worksheet with a couple of the activities I’ve mentioned in my favorite narrative …
This is the activity I use most often for following directions. One of the things that makes the $199 annual fee for this program so worth it is that it’s very customizable. You can set the difficulty from preschool to adult. I tell my older patients to let me know if it’s too “childish” for …
Some of my patients love these articulation I Spy slideshows! Having a patient guess my emoji is often the easiest way to get them to say lots of words. When I’m targeting sentences I find making terribly wrong guesses of the child’s emoji works best. Here’s my FREE I Spy Slideshow! I recommend downloading them …
Here’s my video tutorial on how I’ve been using Toca Pet Doctor with more details on the least-to-most cueing hierarchy I use when I’m targeting these skills.
