"I liked seeing Marge's wonderful therapy space." J.D. (Oct. 2022)

"Learning how to use gestalt first in therapy - I've always approached therapy from a play and sensorimotor premise. Seeing how to use gestalt to work backward to the single-word level makes complete sense now! Great videos. Marge is fun to watch and listen to." A.P. (Oct. 2022)

"Good examples and real-world cases. I liked the goals and targets for gestalt language processors." K.R. (Oct. 2022)

"Liked seeing the kids developing their language, the grammar section, the importance of self regulation, and that there is no limit for language if it is useful for the child." D.C. (Oct. 2022)

"I could pace myself, one class at a time, one session at a time, go back when I felt I did not understand the concept, taking time to process and implement the information." D.C. (Oct. 2022)

"I liked the client examples and references from other clinicians to their own learning through practice." S.A. (Oct. 2022)

"The course allowed me to learn at my own pace and take in information from current clients to apply. Liked the goals and how you integrate the goals into specific therapy." M.C. (Oct. 2022)

"The course was systematically presented. Learning the grammar development with respect to gestalt language processing was beneficial." A.H. (Sept. 2022)

"I loved learning more about the sensory techniques to help boost my speech sessions! Of course, learning about the gestalt language processing is why I came here too. :)" T.R. (Sept. 2022)

"It validated and put names to what I felt about working with children with autism. I have always believed in a play based language focus and I feel with all of this new research, it is validating."  D.B. (Sept. 2022)

"I very much enjoyed seeing client examples and video clips of the different types of gestalts. The video examples of the clients (especially Jez and Zoe) and clinicians helped NLA and gestalt language processing come to life! Additionally, I was happy to see the information about moving away from that traditional model of therapy and moving into a more neurodiverse-affirming, child led, and affirming interests, thoughts, feelings, and echolalia as unique beautiful parts of our clients. More and more clinicians, parents, and educators need to know more about this. Accepting our kids as they are, validating their ways of thinking, feeling, and communicating is life-changing!!"  J.B. (Sept. 2022)

"This course has been crucial to enhancing my therapy skills with GLPs. I liked the real life examples."  B.S. (Sept. 2022)

"Best continuing ed course I've ever taken!"  K.S. (Aug. 2022)

"The entire course was very helpful. This gave me a structure of how to educate my co-workers about gestalt language and how to describe this best to families. The course will definitely help me with better goal writing and focusing more on mitigation and stage 3, when the kids are ready. The grammar section was great - I had no idea that you can introduce verbs too early, and this will be the biggest shift in my practice." E.K. (July  2022)

"I liked that I could take the course at my own pace." M.L. (July 2022)

"Highly applicable to supporting my students." L.W. (July 2022)

"Extremely detailed and informative. I liked all of the content." D.T. (July 2022)

"This course was enriching and inspiring." R.S. (July 2022)

The DST and DSS were also new to me (or maybe long forgotten?). This is a game changer in my work with autistic students!" S.C. (June 2022)

"I loved the videos of clinicians at work with kids." K.C. (June 2022)

"The section on sensory regulation was very helpful. It was also very useful to learn a bit about how AAC can be used with GLPs.  I loved how in-depth this course was. I also really appreciated all of the case studies/real-life examples." J.W. (June 2022)

"Big emphasis on relationship and connection was very well portrayed throughout." T.S. (June 2022)

"Everything was great! From the basics to the client videos and especially the parent perspective. I appreciated so much that Marge presented primarily from her speech center and not from behind a desk." S.L. (May 2022)

"I liked learning about the differences between gestalt and analytic language processors as well as employing more appropriate language strategies for gestalt language processors." S.L. (May 2022)

"I liked both the specific 'how to' of scoring the NLA and DSS, and also the more general perspective of respecting gestalt processors. The guest speakers helped break up the course." G.H. (May 2022)

"I liked the real life examples – seeing it in action is so much more beneficial than hearing what to do." K.M. (May 2022)

"I am astonished that I have been practicing for almost 25 years with this population and knew nothing about NLA. I liked Marge's easy, loving, joyful, sensory-filled approach to therapy. I began in a rehab center collaborating with OTs and PTs and have felt that it was right for my kids. I did not always get a lot of support even when that positive results were evident. Now, I have the validation and immediately added a trampoline and BIG JOE pillow to my not very big, but very fun playroom." K.K. (May 2022)

"I liked all of it, especially the information on moving into stage 3 and the grammar section with the DSS and DST." C.K. (May 2022)

"I liked the video examples and parent stories." H.J. (Apr. 2022)

"Enlightenment onto the importance of echolalia as acceptable, part of a child's development, and how vital they are for "connecting" to others. Seeing the PASSION in of all the therapists when doing their job, when connecting with their clients...the passion to succeed in communicating with ASD kiddos and adults." A.B. (Mar. 2022)

"I liked the examples of how to mitigate at stage 3 - Marge's DSS chart." D.S. (Mar. 2022)

"I liked the developmental sentence scoring, and the ease of access of the course. " J.C. (Mar. 2022)

"I currently have a student with Autism and he is echolalic. I now have the knowledge to teach him language." D.C. (Mar. 2022)

"I loved all of it! Especially the grammar section." J.S. (Mar. 2022)

"I currently have a student who needs to begin to move from Level 2 to Level 3. This course was very helpful in helping me plan my therapy. I liked the content because it addressed treatment and gave many examples of techniques being used. I also liked that it was recorded and that I could work at my own pace." M.C. (Mar. 2022)

"I liked how to model gestalts that can be easily mitigated to move a child from stage 1 to stage 2." K.P. (Feb. 2022)

"I appreciated the deep dives into various specific cases to see different ways GLPs can sound and different ways NLA approaches can be implemented. I love REALLY picking apart language development, and this course went full speech nerd with me."  S.L. (Feb. 2022)

"I liked all of it – real life examples. It was perfect!." D.B. (Feb. 2022)

"There was soooo much in this course that will impact my practice. I am re-visiting the way I write goals for my gestalt processors and trying to follow the NLA skill progressions. It's amazing how much more engaged children are when I follow their lead and don't force artificial/unreasonable expectations (e.g., all the sentence strips).  I appreciated the video examples and the parent input." D.M. (Jan. 2022)

"Level 3 of the NLA courses is a must for every SLP working with children who are gestalt language processors. Levels 1 and 2 allowed us to learn the NLA stages and guiding treatment principles. In this Level 3 course we learn how to individualize NLA intervention for specific clients with a host of differences, how and why to incorporate movement, and the power of grammar. Marge eloquently guides this course as we learn to tailor NLA intervention to meet the needs of real children and their families within meaningful and engaging contexts, ultimately fostering sincere and organic expression." C.H.

"With the background of knowing about NLA assessment and stages, the level three course gave me an understanding of how to incorporate this knowledge into treatment. I am able to set up an affirming environment for reciprocal, self-generated language without relying on frustrating techniques such as withholding items." E.F.

"Marge Blanc does it again! This course is a phenomenal in-depth deep-dive into all the areas the first two courses left you wondering about. We can truly wrap our heads around Stages 3 and 4, and it all makes so much sense! The case studies are incredible, and really help solidify and put into action all that Marge teaches. Every single pediatric SLP needs this information. It really should be required coursework in graduate school." A.Z.

"The specific goals were very helpful. Learning how to teach kids about their "speech machine" I think will be very helpful. Course was very informational and easy to follow." R.S. (Mar. 2023)

"Dr. Yaruss was a very captivating presenter, one where the listener could feel his love and passion for the world of stuttering." A.P. (Jan. 2023)

"Dr. Yaruss' approach to driving an initial understanding of the speech mechanism, where tension is felt/placed, and how to release it is a refreshing and pertinent way of approaching this type of therapy with my weekly clients. I liked the self-paced nature and the conversational, yet informative, delivery of information." S.G. (Jan. 2023)

"Wow, this is one of the most practical and informative courses I have ever taken! I really appreciate the advice on how to talk to parents about their child's stuttering. The activities and the goals are so useful too. I love the idea of the speech notebook and the client teaching his parents what was covered in therapy." J.T. (Jan. 2023)

"This course built upon my foundational knowledge of stuttering and stuttering therapy, and I thought the information was very straightforward and 100% applicable. I had many "ah-ha" moments because the information went into depth about the why and how to target these areas. I really loved this course and am so thankful I took it!" N.S. (Jan. 2023)

"Demonstration of therapy activities were beneficial. Clear and concise with plenty of examples." B.J. (Jan. 2023)

"I love the comprehensive approach to stuttering. It's just as important to address the negative reactions and focus on what each student is experiencing. It was comforting to know this may take several weeks to accomplish and not to move on until the student has a solid foundation." C.B. (Dec. 2022)

"I appreciated that instead of focusing on theory, Dr. Yaruss gave practical applications of how to incorporate specific activities into daily therapy." J.M. (Dec. 2022)

"I liked how the course addressed the whole stuttering experience and emphasized making communication more comfortable for the child. I felt empowered to discuss improved overall communication and daily functioning with parents rather than focusing on improved fluency." J.M. (Dec. 2022)

"The strategies for Timing and Tension will help me tremendously in my daily practice. How to teach desensitization will also help me in my daily practice. I like how I can help empower children to empower themselves and to be more accepting of their stuttering." W.J. (Dec. 2022)

"Easy to follow along. I liked the goal creation and sample activities." L.H. (Dec. 2022)

"Learning how to deal with the student's teachers and also bullying." E.S. (Dec. 2022)

"I found all the information valuable! After watching this course, it became clear to me that I need to spend more time on this aspect. I also liked the portion about bullying and being proactive rather than reactive around that piece!" T.T. (Nov. 2022)

"I liked the discussion of timing and tension as the simple basis for all fluency shaping techniques. I also liked the discussion about trade-offs between easy speech techniques (reducing tension and time pressure) and naturalism/automaticity and the clear discussion of this and that, no, a person who stutters won't be aiming to use these techniques all the time." R.M. (Nov. 2022)

Having left graduate school nearly 30 years, ago, I really needed this course to reinforce current thinking and methodologies on stuttering."  B.J. (Aug. 2022)

"I needed to hear Scott Yaruss say how important teaching the student to understand what parts of his body feels tension and learn to recognize where the tension is. I like that Scott recommended spending a lot of time on this foundation teaching about the speech machine and learning to notice tension. I also like that the goal in therapy is not to speak fluently, but to speak more easily.

Secondarily, I like the notion of seeing all behaviors in a positive light. The list of positive labels to use for talking about children is excellent - I now have it posted over my desk for my own reference, and I plan to share it with teachers, other therapists, and parents. The many examples were useful to help me think about what parents experience every day, 24/7. They offered a "bigger picture" view of the children I work with, not just the picture I have of them when I work with them in individual therapy sessions. The Course Outline was clear and made it easy to view a section of material at a time." D.D. (Mar. 2023)

I was engaged and interested throughout the whole presentation. There were so many resources for quick references that I am excited to use." S.R. (Aug. 2022)

"The entire presentation was helpful, especially the portion about showing and using empathy in our words and actions because I know how it feels when my loved ones talk to me without empathy and what that feels like (not very good) and don't want my students to feel that way.

I think that some issues that we frequently address on the floor (e.g., carrying out the SLP recommendations by staff members etc.) could be assisted by an ethics committee review so that it becomes an institutional discussion rather than a tug of war on the floor."  L.M.

This webinar brought up many of the questions I had concerning when to tube and when not to tube a child. The power point presentation was easy to follow.
