Clearly communicated and organized. Very functional and useful information on something many of us want to be able to use in therapy but aren't always sure how to make it language focused instead of "mental health" focused. This gives great promise.

Maybe I'm just having a bad day or maybe I'm just aging out of this profession but I found this incredibly difficult to pay attention to in large part because of the presenters intonation pattern.

This CEU course inspired me to not only use these narrative techniques during my therapy sessions and put another tool in my "group" toolbox, but also to use the techniques to train staff in our Life Enrichment (Activities) Department to utilize them as a tool to increase socialization among residents in our rehabilitation and long-term-care facility.

Definition and framework for using/developing narratives
by
Member
on
August 20, 2019
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.

by

Course content & delivery was excellent...UNTIL she started taking questions, then delivery & flow/continuity suffered. Best to take all questions at end. I think sometimes participants make comments just to get that little stroke of recognition/validation by the presenter & questions can best be saved until the end of the presentation.

by

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.

The course highlights the importance and meaningfulness of the revised narrative for the person with aphasia to enable the PWA to process what they have lived through since their stroke and to reconstruct their identity accordingly.

It was helpful to see the speaker talking instead of just a photo of her. Having a video of a client was really helpful and motivating for me as a therapist.
by

Instead of just talking about studies, I would have preferred a lot more real-life experiences with patients with aphasia and examples of how the different approaches were implemented with individuals (since we're talking about identity here).

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.
by

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
Member
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?!).
