Early Aphasia Therapy

Emily Pietz Porter

You’ll love the results from this structured, easy-to-use, picture based aphasia program.

It features:

● A hierarchy of difficulty – from singing and rhythm, to automatic speech, phrase completion, confrontational sentence formulation, and finally responsive and open – ended sentence formulation. The workbook allows you to increase difficulty systematically.

● A standard cueing sequence adds consistency (pictures alone, picture + some letters, pictures + printed word or sentence). These cues can be progressively uncovered on the page until the client responds correctly. Additional cues are suggested if this sequence does not always work.

● Complete instructions are provided for both the SLP and caregiver, so it’s easy to copy and use as a home program. Family members can learn cueing techniques they can use in everyday situations. Large print and clear Pick ‘n Stick ® illustrations are easy for the clients to identify and are age – appropriate for adults.

This one book has everything you’ll need to jump start your client’s recovery.
