Heather Koole, PhD, CCC-SLP is associate professor in the Speech Pathology and Audiology Department at Calvin University in Grand Rapids, MI. The combination of Heather’s undergraduate and graduate degrees (social work, speech-language pathology, interdisciplinary health sciences) and clinical work have propelled her to think broadly about issues in the field of communication sciences and disorders. Her research and teaching interests include the following: how people with communication disorders (particularly brain injury) experience success and participate in life in meaningful ways; effective ways for preparing students to support clients in that success; facilitators and barriers to the SLP’s role in providing functional and contextualized intervention.
