The information that was provided was succinct and presented in a format that was easy to follow. However, the presenter used too many "ums" throughout the presentation which started to distract me from the information she was presenting.

The presenter, Katie Strong, provided some Key Concepts; identity is not static, but continually evolves from environmental influences of validation or rejection: the significant others of a stroke/aphasia patient must also be considered during treatment, e.g. “How the stroke event affected their relationships with stroke patient,†and the inspiring video of patient talking about their personal narrative co-construction and how it made them so proud.

The speaker seemed discombobulated frequently. Her intonation and the inability to stop saying "um" between every other word made it very difficult to focus on this course. I also don't think a lot of helpful and specific information was given about how to implement this into treatment. Still left a lot of questions for me.

It was useful to have a review of the A-FROM and evidence based methods for using it to create a life story for someone living with aphasia. I think this is very important work and has the potential to help many patients.

by

A better way to think of "long term goals" for SLPs - we need to help people with aphasia (and their families) figure out and share what happened, who they are now and how to move forward.

It was good to hear the importance of a person's story. Seems simple but we often forget how stories are told to each other throughout the day w/ such ease. Glad it was mentioned that 3-5 years post stroke to tell story.

It was enlightening to consider the relationship of communication and identity, and further to re-evaluate the role of the SLP in examining and treating that relationship.
by

on
April 30, 2019
We loved the references to evidence-based research and prior examples that support this approach. Dr. Strong's presentation provided a clear layout of "Why" - leaving listeners with useful resources to delve into afterwards in order to get started. The video and real examples strongly emphasized the need to facilitate identity through narratives into our clinical practice (how motivational?!).
by
Amy

The re-affirmation that targeting concepts like identity (in multiple populations /not just aphasic) is an essential part of clinical rehabilitation. Thank you.
by

The concept of focusing on the psycho-social issues of an aphasic person's identity, narratives and co-construction, helps maintain the person's quality of life at a higher level than simply improving speech and language skills during therapy.

Great presenter! Well organized! Dynamic! Good pace. The relationships of the Key Concepts of Identity, Narrative and Co-construction were thoroughly presented.Inspiring video of patient response! As we continue to evolve as SLPs and caregivers, this very personal paradigm of service delivery will emerge to the forefront! Thank you for "My Story Project" and all your research!

It introduced me to using personal narratives with people with aphasia. It sounds very exciting and I can't wait to become more skilled to use this approach in therapy. I also enjoyed her discussion about "small stories" as my clients often want to share information with me at the beginning of the session. It makes me more cognizant to give them time to do son.

This course addresses the real QoL losses caused by aphasia and provides a structure for supporting client's telling their story. It's a challenge for SLPs to move beyond linguistic concreteness to addressing what language really is and how to re-access after neurological insult.

it supports my philosophy of treatment. Loved the validation:) And it gives me some ammunition to support what I keep telling my externs and CF"s, that this is up and coming research. I always say that stroke doesn't just happen to the person, it happens to the whole family. Also, good ideas.

Understanding how aphasia affects individuals and their families is so important for a therapist to continued therapy not only with language, but in continuing support emotionally years after incidents. Narratives are a vital tool for this support.
