How to Build a Repeatable, Research-Informed Language Therapy System in 2 hours a Week without a “Hierarchy” (that works for a typical school SLP schedule)
Free Training for SLPs and related service providers.
Join me in this free training and learn how to design a language therapy system you can reuse and refine that reduces planning time and constant on-the-fly decisions, and helps students generalize skills into the classroom and beyond.
Join me as I share the "three shifts" that turn your expertise into a scalable language therapy system.
In this training, I'll reveal:
- The five "clinical containers" you can use to design your language therapy system, informed by my doctoral research and experience working in the schools for 10+ years.
- How to fill those linguistic containers over time using "asset stacking", so you're strategically adding layers of complexity one at a time.
- How to structure your planning so it fits into a realistic schedule, so each block of "plan" time you get moves you towards building your complete language therapy system.
If you’re managing a full caseload, writing IEPs, and planning language therapy for students who need support in multiple areas, you already know how to run a good session.
But that doesn’t mean it’s easy.
You’re still:
👉 Starting from scratch every week
👉 Piecing together materials and strategies
👉 Trying to fit “everything” into 30 minutes
And even when sessions go well…
It doesn’t always feel like things are building in a clear direction.
Most clinicians assume this is a knowledge problem, and that they need better materials, better strategies, or more training.
But for experienced SLPs, it’s usually the opposite.
You don’t lack knowledge.
You have too much of it, without a system to organize it.
So every session becomes a decision.
That’s what makes everything feel harder than it should.
But here's what I've learned over the last 20+ years interacting with clinical and educational professionals:
Clinicians who are confidently delivering language and literacy interventions haven't found the perfect "therapy curriculum".
They've learned how to build their own using three practices.
#1: They define "clinical containers" so they know how to document their protocols and make them repeatable.
They know forcing language skills into a rigid, linear "hierarchy" is unnecessary and will make interventions difficult to scale.
#2. They "stack" clinical asset over time to layer interventions intentionally, adding complexity in phases.
They DON'T try to build protocols for all aspects of language and cognition at the same time because they know too much at once is unsustainable.
#3. They build a predetermined set of "assets" that slowly builds towards a complete system.
They don't start from scratch each week or pull from a huge, overwhelming list of language skills and activities when they design sessions.
If you've been searching for a better language therapy system and keep coming up short despite all your knowledge and experience, these three practices are the missing link.
I'm Dr. Karen, your host.
I’m a speech-language pathologist with a doctorate in special education and school administration license.
I've been working with clinicians for 20+ years, and I spent 14 years in the schools supporting students with language, literacy, and executive functioning needs.
Now I help therapists, educators, and teams design structured systems so planning is clear, repeatable, and doesn’t start from scratch every week.
