The content , as a presentation was new to me despite being aware of some of the things presented. The presenter’s enthusiasm shined throughout the video and his passion and zeal for this very important topic positively influenced me. In addition, in my opinion, as a member of a Treatment Team, I feel the information presented will also be helpful in collaborating with my peers.

This topic is so important to our times. I LOVED the discussion on how to approach spirituality within my sessions. I now have a non-judgemental way of asking my clients this question so I can treat the whole child. I also want to read more on his research about the relationship betweem health and community. Can we have a Part 2 session?

Personally my spirituality is getting more important to me the older I get, so I would be so moved by a therapist who would include this in their practice. Also, I was so moved by how emotional Scott became over the success of some of his clients. He was fully invested in their whole well being.

This presentation was odd and off-putting to watch as a minority. I would have scraped it before finishing if I hadn't already invested the time. Topic probably would have been better covered in less time - maybe that would have cut back on some of the filler moments. When they started referring to cowboys and Indians I had to do a double take.

The questions in the HOPE survey were very practical. I am a religious person who has been experiencing a lot of grief lately and depression. I feel like I am anointed to bring healing to myself and others and your definition of therapist - agent of healing- brought me such encouragement. I hope to be able to do that soon as am I applying for my license in a new state now. If it's ok, I'd love to talk to the presenter. my number is 843-259-0737

For a 2 hour course, I feel that the content could have been condensed into the first hour and the second hour could have been more geared towards how these topics directly shape our treatment, caregiver/pt interactions, evaluation/assessments, and specific case studies with more details concerning our SLP profession.

by

The presenter was quite likable BUT his storytelling was perhaps a bit excessive, and how he wrapped up each story was redundant and meandering. The best part of the session was the last 20 minutes. If he had jumped into spirituality sooner and gave actual case studies about how spirituality is woven into a plan of care, I think the 2 hours would have been more instructive. He could tease out all the subtle ways spirituality can enrich treatment.

I am happy to find a course on speechpathology.com that addresses spirituality. However, this course hasn’t quite given me the answers I need. I am a Catholic who has worked with a family that believes in Paganism. I’ve never had a problem doing therapy with the child. However, he and his mother do have very strong feelings on certain issues. I would like to work with them without feeling like I ever have to compromise what I believe in order to do so.

Too many personal stories and personal opinions and despite claiming to be culturally sensitive ("Jewish or whatever" is not, by the way, culturally sensitive) this was very Christian-centric. In the end the only useful advice is to write meaningful goals, which I'd hope we all do already. On the other hand I appreciate him citing sources, discussing their quality and contribution to his talk, and giving references.

First, I think the topic had special interest as this was taught by an OT, speaking to OT, PT and SLP. More of that is needed. I spent most of my career working in for profit institutions, where the thought of hiring a Chaplain was a non-starter. So for me, a person of faith, I thought his presentation useful and helpful. We do need to be very careful, but since we deal with many patients who are reaching the end of life, his HOPE illustration was very helpful.

The notion of ascertaining a client's or student's "spirituality" seems invasive and outside the scope of practice. There was an attempt to address this, but it was not sufficient. The most valuable takeaway is the reminder that therapists are bringers of hope (for recovery/progress), so putting our therapeutic goals in line with clients' personal goals for meaningful recovery (to them) is paramount.

I fell, while some aspects of the content were valid, the approach to spirituality is very delicate. I get the sense that this is much more a mid western vibe then would ever be acceptable in the northeast( an example, therefore of cultural difference).I also feel that culture can be individual as more and more generations, don't blend or respect culture, but begin to build their own. Question 2 ( sadly, so)
