Voice Therapy 4-1-1 : A Practical How-To Guide For The New And Non-Voice-Specialist Clinician

This is the book I wish I'd had when I was a new grad wanting to learn how to do voice therapy. Unless you can get an internship or clinical fellowship at a voice center and have direct mentorship, learning how to become a voice therapist is a challenge. So, here's a clinical mentor in your pocket book, that will teach you how to be a voice therapist. If you're a non-voice specialist clinician, this will give you options to what you may already know, to add to your clinical arsenal. Voice Therapy 4-1-1 is a practical, succinct guidebook. The profession needs a book for the neophyte voice clinician that only explains voice therapy and that is written specifically for therapists. This is an accessible, practical and affordable how-to, "for clinicians by clinicians," intro-level voice therapy handbook for speech pathologists and grad students. Speech pathologists, especially new ones, need to be able to use the branded voice therapy programs, and their principles, to meet patient bioindividuality and not be limited in their skill set. Sometimes a straight "program" is not the way to go, but the principles behind the evidence-based programs should inform all therapeutic approaches. It's not about the programs - it's about the principles. Voice Therapy 4-1-1 offers new and non-voice specialist SLPs the basic nuts and bolts of voice therapy in a step by step fashion--how to sit down with a patient and figure out where and how to begin, how to instruct and model things for patients, and how to educate patients and facilitate their self-awareness in the therapeutic process. If you don't have direct mentorship for learning how to be a voice therapist, you can have this.
