Amanda explains everything in ways that make it easy to understand, She relates the topic to everyday issues, that we all might have. Including the video of the weekend retreat, that her nonprofit has created, really touched my heart and was such a great example of how much impact we can have in the lives of those with aphasia, and their caregivers.

I honestly have never thought about this side of things in regard to QOL for aphasia patients. As an SLP and specifically in the SNF setting, focus is purely on improving the patients ability to communicate. This course opened my eyes to the importance of looking at the WHOLE impact of aphasia especially in relationships. The retreat was absolutely beautiful and such a great resource for those couples!

The topic itself. This course gave me ideas how to help a lady at my church. She has MS and recently expressed to me that she wants to date again. In the pass she has asked me to help with her motor speech skills and In was prepared for that. But this time she asked did I know of someone she could date. We are close on age and I understand as a woman the desire for intimacy. As a result of this course, I will look to see if there are some resources for dating and intimacy for people with MS or similiar disabilities.

This area by nature will be individualized and by definition result in a person centered therapy approach using the ExPlissit Model provided.

How to approach intimacy and help relationships improve
by
Kimberly
on
August 7, 2021
Having experienced a mildTBI with a broken neck last year, this topic was broached by the OT with the following statement.. I am giving you information on how to help you change clothes with the halo, toileting ideas to work towards independence and there is one page in there that shows you the potential positions for sexual activities if you want to have sex while you wear the halo but be extra careful.. good luck on your recovery at home. It would have been so much better to have talked about the intimacy from this standpoint. Recovery was long and my husband always felt like any thoughts of sexual intimacy were just wrong. He was focused on safety 1110% while I was focused on please can we just hold hands. The physicians discounting the TBI as nothing compared to the broken bones and actually dismissed any speech therapy as unnecessary and since I was an SLP, I should know what to do to strengthen any cognitive declines. This course should be mandatory for all professionals honestly.

I have never seen this discussed at all before and it seems so important.

Thank you for this work!
