Dr. Strong reminded me of the ultimate goal of an Aphasia patient is not just completing traditional speech therapy goals. The ultimate goal for the patient with aphasia is how to live with aphasia and move forward. This is such a challenge because the patient 's goal is to become what they were before the CVA and loss of language skills.

I thought the concept of this course sounded great but the delivery of the subject matter was confusing especially when discussing the Evidence based narrative methods. It would have been helpful to provide more relatable examples and definitive terms when providing the information. This course seemed more like a thesis presentation opposed to a course for relatable treatment ideas

I am in home care (12 years) with only 1 other SLP (who I interact well with). I have used many of these techniques in a more "haphazard" way d/t to my background in psychology. This helped to guide me more towards a framework within the aphasia community and directed me to more succinct resources.

The LPAA approach to Aphasia Treatment makes so much sense...focus on the individual, their needs to function in the environment, their narratives, their identities etc. is the only way to achieve improvement in their Quality of Life! Traditional, out of context therapy has had little to no carryover to a person functioning outside of a therapy room...and I believe it is one reason it is sometimes hard to get Doctor's orders to eval & treat. I love this method of therapy, for perhaps multiple "diagnoses", and I hope the focus remains on this type of treatment. It makes being a therapist much more interesting and motivating! Thanks for the great presentation!

Amazing stuff! Katie Strong was an amazing presentor of this information. I have personally been out of the field for a few years but can not wait to incorporate these techniques moving forward in aphasia therapy. The video of the patient sharing his overall experience with the "My Story" project was so special. I have a real renewed excitement for this area of the field and helping people find improved meaning in their "new normal". Thank you!

I really enjoyed the focus on identity and redifining a new identity within themselves post stroke. This hits very close to home as my father in law suffered a stroke 5 years ago and really struggled most with identify after. I was a part of an outpatient program where patients with aphasia would meet once a month once discharged from therapy to continue that community with others who have aphasia.

This course was outstanding in helping me understand how to incorporate storytelling into the context of treatment. Utilizing partner participation and communicating with other individuals with aphasia and incorporating other evidence based storytelling treatment strategies is a great addition to the overall treatment program. It is reinforcing to know that there are qualified professionals objectifying and quantifying these valuable treatment strategies.

Course content & delivery was excellent...UNTIL she started taking questions, then delivery & flow/continuity suffered. Best to take all questions at end.

The language of the course was helpful in understanding what the presenter was saying but how I could relate the terminology to everyday treatment was too abstract. The point of the course was completely logical and something I use in my everyday treatment techniques. It is very important to use narratives with stroke patients and creating stories for more functional communication improvements.
