FAQs: Language therapy goals and "observable behaviors" vs "strategy goals".

For episode 196 of De Facto Leaders, I share a Q & A session where I talk through how to write language therapy goals that are both trackable and functional.This is just one of many Q & A sessions I’m planning on sharing where I talk through how to find the balance between focusing on external behaviors that allow us to document progress and internal cognitive processes.I also talk about when to focus on “observable” language skills vs. strategy-based goals; especially when addressing both language and executive functioning skills. Throughout the session, you’ll hear examples related to working on skills like syntax, semantic feature study, vocabulary, and cognitive processes that support language comprehension. This Q & A session was done in the member’s group for Language Therapy Advance Foundations, my program that helps SLPs build a system for language therapy.
