Tapping into the Power of Neuroplasticity for Individuals with Neurogenic Cognitive-Communication Disorders
Presented by Melissa Johnson, PhD, CCC-SLP, Jessie Preston, MA, CCC-SLP
Live WebinarTue, Apr 28, 2026 at 3:00 pm EDT
Course: #11438Level: Intermediate1 Hour
Neuroplasticity principles are well-established and can inform rehabilitation practices. Traditionally, rehabilitation services have focused on the acute and subacute phases of recovery; however, there is clear evidence that individuals can continue to recover function long into the chronic phase. This course will present ideas for tapping into the power of neuroplasticity to support individuals with chronic neurogenic cognitive-communication disorders across the continuum of care, including recommendations for advocacy to promote service delivery and access.

Project-Based Intervention for Aphasia: A Practical Approach to Life Participation Goals
Presented by Katie Strong, PhD, CCC-SLP, Thomas Sather, PhD, CCC-SLP
Live WebinarMon, May 11, 2026 at 7:00 pm EDT
Course: #11433Level: Introductory1 Hour
Project-based intervention provides rich opportunities for individuals with aphasia to pursue meaningful goals and identity re-formulation in authentic contexts. This course explores tools for partnering with people living with aphasia to target meaningful project-based and participation-focused interventions applicable for clinic-based outpatient and community aphasia services. In-depth case examples will be provided, illustrating applications of project-based interventions across multiple settings using evidence-based components.

Cough Strengthening Treatment Impact on Vocal Health in Parkinson’s Disease
Presented by Bridget Russell, PhD, CCC-SLP
Video
Course: #11364Level: Intermediate1 Hour
This course reviews the effects of Sensorimotor Training for Airway Protection (smTAP), a cough-strengthening treatment method, on the vocal health of individuals with Parkinson’s Disease. While this treatment enhances cough efficacy, its impact on vocal health remains underexplored. Discussion involves pre- and post-treatment vocal health evaluations, comparing how the use of smTAP affects vocal health in patients with Parkinson's Disease. Findings offer clinically relevant insights into treatment selection for Parkinson’s Disease patients.

Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI): Assessment and Treatment

Neuroanatomy Review for SLPs
Presented by Melissa Johnson, PhD, CCC-SLP
Video
Course: #11328Level: Intermediate1 Hour
This course will provide a review of neuroanatomy concepts that are relevant to speech-language pathologists, especially those practicing in medical settings and/or with medically complex clients. Topics covered will include: review of brain anatomy (e.g., cranial nerves, structures and functions associated with neurological disorders/diseases, cerebrovascular system) and discussion of the dual stream models for language and prosody and their implications for clinical practice.

Beyond the Tip of the Iceberg: Communication Across the Dementia Journey
Presented by Laurie Walther, MS, CCC-SLP
Video
Course: #11308Level: Intermediate1 Hour
An iceberg serves as a powerful metaphor for the complexities of communication and how our individual backgrounds, experiences, and perceptions shape how we interpret interactions. When caring for a person living with dementia, we may only observe what appears at the “tip of the iceberg.” To foster meaningful communication, we must look beneath the surface to uncover the deeper meaning behind their words and behaviors.

Right Hemisphere Brain Damage: Evidence-Based Assessment and Treatment Across the Continuum of Care
Presented by Melissa Johnson, PhD, CCC-SLP
Video
Course: #11295Level: Advanced2 Hours
This course will examine the cognitive-communication impairments that may result from right hemisphere brain damage (RHD), including an in-depth exploration of apragmatism (i.e., deficits in pragmatics). It will review the current evidence on the language characteristics of individuals with RHD, as well as approaches to assessment and treatment. The discussion will also highlight important implications for clinical practice.

Effective Partnering in Dementia Care: Reframing Behaviors
Presented by Laurie Walther, MS, CCC-SLP
Video
Course: #11204Level: Intermediate1 Hour
This course challenges the common perception of “challenging behaviors” in individuals with dementia by exploring their root causes through a compassionate, investigative lens. Participants will learn practical strategies to adjust care approaches, strengthen connection, and support more positive outcomes.

Understanding And Supporting Adults With Intellectual And Developmental Disabilities With Cognitive Decline And Regressive Illness
Presented by Christina Marsack-Topolewski, PhD, LMSW
VideoAudioText
Course: #1033916Level: Introductory1 Hour
Adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) may exhibit dementia and clinical characteristics that are distinct to cognitive decline as they age across the lifespan. Recognizing and treating cognitive decline in adults with IDD can be challenging given other symptomatology that may exist. This webinar provides information to equip providers to identify the unique characteristics of regressive illness to effectively support the IDD population.
