"The whole idea of Gestalt Language Processor was beneficial. I have been thinking that children with Autism were using scripts to communicate, and they wanted to be a part of conversations, so they quoted scripts. This course confirmed this and also opened my eyes to the power of the child choosing movie clips to communicate. Also, it has changed the way I have approached therapy. The first child told me thank you for playing with me. They valued that so much. One child was going to be dismissed from lack of progress, and she began to make eye contact and engage with me. She even tried to feed me during play." M.S. (Aug. 2023)

"All sections add relevant information for anyone who knows, loves, or works with a gestalt language processor. Discusses "why" and importance and significance of the impact of proper, in-depth understanding of echolalia and gestalt language processing and natural language acquisition.

"The entire course as a whole helps to restore humanity. You can't discuss NLA without also acknowledging that we need to be more finely tuned into the fact that our echolalic students have been communicating this whole time. This course doesn't just offer information but a new perspective on humanity. It has encouraged me to slow down and appreciate all that our students say and all they are. It is so tempting (in the name of financial survival) to go about the day's scheduled sessions with goals and agendas in mind... without stopping to smell the roses (appreciating our students and how they think)." R.M. (Jul. 2023)

"This Level 3 course I found to be the most informative and helpful. I really liked this course so much, that I purchased the book as well.

"Good explanation of how Gestalt Language Processors learn language differently and that echolalia is not disordered language acquisition. I liked the true examples of how gestalts are used to communicate different concepts/thoughts." C.D. (Nov. 2022)

"Learning about grammar and how to analyze appropriately. Course was easy to pace myself over time. It gave real examples. It was given from many perspectives (SLP, parents, etc.)." L.H. (Nov. 2022)

"Liked seeing demonstrations of therapy sessions as well as seeing clients who made tremendous progress. I liked the shared information and thoroughness of every guest speaker." A.S. (Nov. 2022)

"All of this information is incredibly beneficial to the children and families with whom I work. This topic is so interesting to me." D.J. (Nov. 2022)

"It validates and helps strengthen my understanding of gestalt learners." L.H. (Nov. 2022)

"Wow! There was so much information. I feel like all sections provided beneficial information for daily practice. She did a great job of having different speakers and video clips to help the 10-hour course move along and keep our interest." L.G. (Oct. 2022)

"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)

"I liked the examples and hearing from a variety of people. And the discussion about self-regulation and how it truly affects a child's participation and language." T.N. (Oct. 2022)

"I really enjoyed all of the videos that showed NLA first-hand." S.S. (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)

"All of the course was beneficial, and the discussion about how it's not about "correct" grammar, but self-generated grammar was meaningful. I liked the many examples as well as Marge's teaching style."  K.G. (Aug. 2022)

"I work with autistic students so everything that was discussed is beneficial to my daily practice. I loved the visuals."  S.H. (Aug. 2022)

"Learning to listen carefully to scripting and to read between the lines (and talk to others on the team) to figure out the meaning was beneficial for my practice." M.M. (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)

"I found the information about sensory integration very important. Also the explanation of individual treatment sessions was helpful. I really liked the perspective coming from a mother. MAN, her smile could light up the world." J.R. (July 2022)

"Learning about the hidden meaning in gestalts, learning how to individualize treatment for GLPs. I like that it targets an area that I really needed to learn more about!" M.M. (July 2022)

"I feel that the bulk of my caseload consists of NLA processors and I can already see that shifting my focus of intervention is improving their willingness to engage and communicate in the context of treatment sessions." L.G. (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)

"Oh my goodness. ALL of it. I wish that I had this all ten years ago. I knew the term gestalt and that some kids learned language as "wholes" but I never knew what to do with that information. 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.

"My big take away was to be methodical in working through the 10 goals and not to jump around; that the student needs a solid foundation in order to achieve some generalization. LOTS of practical activities laid out in a methodical manner." C.H. (Nov. 2023)

"I have several students who stutter on my caseload currently, and this course has helped me to reframe my thinking on how best to support them during therapy sessions, and also how to select goals/topics to discuss to help them learn more about their speech. The presenter was conversational and provided many great examples and analogies that I feel I can use with my students to help connect with them and support their journey to making speech easier." R.S. (Nov. 2023)

"This course was super informative, and the speaker was highly knowledgeable." M.M. (Nov. 2023)

"One of the best online courses I've ever taken. Love the goal writing tips, the activities, all of it. The speaker is engaging and easy to listen to. He doesn't sound like he's just reading an outline or a script." A.J. (Nov. 2023)

"I liked that the presenter views this therapy as speaking more easily and not improving fluency or decreasing stuttering. I liked the discussion of techniques to address the bigger picture, and I like that I learned things I can directly include in my therapy." K.W. (Nov. 2023)

"Goals, treatment activities, & parent/teacher advice. I liked this approach being child/student-led and viewing it through the lens of trying to have effective communication as the overall goal, as opposed to decreasing stuttering events/increasing fluency." M.S. (Nov. 2023)

"How to write relevant goals. Teaching the speech mechanism to the point that the child could teach others. Keeping us up-to-date on things that have changed." S.L. (Nov. 2023)

"Great instruction on actual therapy activities and how/when to do them. SO much useful information." M.S. (Nov. 2023)

"Dr. Yaruss is a charismatic teacher. I liked the updated research." J.P. (Nov. 2023)

"I liked the treatment goals that were reviewed. The presenter was very clear with his course objectives." R.A. (Nov. 2023)

"The information presented by Dr. Yaruss is so extremely useable and relatable to me as a school-based SLP. His techniques and strategies are ones I can take into the therapy room tomorrow! Discussing the importance of teaching desensitization to stuttering throughout the treatment process and what effects this has on a child who stutters was beneficial." W.H. (Oct. 2023)

"The presenter was very knowledgeable and easy to listen to. Staying on the foundation of stuttering was beneficial, i.e., how they stutter, before going on to fluency techniques." A.S. (Oct. 2023)

"The goals and parent/family involvement tips were beneficial. I liked the course format, tips, ease and convenience." T.W. (Sep. 2023)

"Enjoyed the goals and activities. And the specific interventions." S.C. (Sep. 2023)

"Learning the step by step process for addressing stuttering and all components was helpful. I liked that this course did not focus just on techniques and addressed the ICF model, acknowledging that we aren't going to CURE stuttering, but how we can really help!" K.S. (Sep. 2023)

"Knowing how important it is for students to understand the "speech machine" as well as supporting them socially and pragmatically especially bullying. Dr. Yaruss was such a wonderful presenter. I really enjoyed learning from him, not only the content of the topic, but also the way he presented." M.M. (Sep. 2023)

"The presenter was passionate about helping students who stutter. It was beneficial to discuss letting the student be the teacher of parents, teachers, and bullies...with the aid of therapist and other school staff." A.B. (Aug. 2023)

"Good information and easy to listen to." J.B. (Aug. 2023)

"Very detailed presentation with lots of examples, like having children write a letter to their teacher, dealing with bullying in an efficient way." A.R. (Aug. 2023)

"I liked the activities outlined throughout this course. The examples/analogies provided will be very useful in my future practice." G.S. (Aug. 2023)

"I liked the explanation of the therapy techniques and the goals provided." T.G. (Aug. 2023)

"How to address bullying and how to work on de-sensitization were beneficial topics. I liked the presenter's explanation of the big picture of stuttering." M.K. (Jul. 2023)

"Very practical! Clearly, the presenter enjoys his work and wants to help other SLPs to feel comfortable with working with individuals who stutter. I love the idea of having the individual reenact the therapy session every session! I can see multiple benefits of that - family/significant other education and support, ownership of their stuttering treatment, reinforcement, and practice of what was learned." S.P. (Jul. 2023)

"I liked the explanation of the stuttering modification techniques and how they are related, and sometimes the same as fluency enhancing. I liked the activities and goals provided. I have a couple students who stutter and this progression will be helpful for them. I liked how this course addressed the parents and teachers acceptance and knowledge of stuttering as it is difficult to find time to contact them." M.E. (Jul. 2023)

"There were a variety of activities for me to use with students of all ages, and I appreciated the information regarding talking to parents as well as the strategies to deal with bullying. I have used "speech machine" discussion and pictures but will have students draw their own, reducing the use of word "fluency" and instead talk about the ease of fluency. I also will use the strategy of "teach the teacher." L.H. (Jul. 2023)

"The order of goals was beneficial, and I liked the exact goal list and rationale." N.G. (Jul. 2023)

"I liked the discussion of timing and tension along with desensitization. Dr. Yaruss had an easy to listen to way of presenting the information. He clearly shows that he enjoys working with individuals who stutter and conveys this in such a way that makes the clinician more confident on taking on individuals who stutter." E.V. (Jun. 2023)

"ALL OF IT! Knowing why and how to use these goals is extremely helpful in understanding the goals set by the SLPs that I work with (I'm a Communicative Disorders Assistant). I liked how useful and practical all of the information is." L.C. (Jun. 2023)

"Engaging speaker. I liked the parent engagement and having the student teach the parents." N.V. (Jun. 2023)

"This course was clear, with written goals and great examples. The discussion around desensitization was very interesting. I will use this with my clients." L.S. (Jun. 2023)

"Engaging, knowledgeable speaker and valuable information. Interesting format and discussion about working on the entire stuttering experience and not just enhancing fluency." P.S. (Jun. 2023)

"I liked that all the techniques and approaches provided were practical. It was beneficial discussing what to prioritize when beginning stuttering therapy (i.e. desensitization)." A.M. (Jun. 2023)

"The presenter was knowledgeable and easy to listen to! I liked the discussion related to the fact that techniques are hard to use and they will most likely not ever become fully automatic. It is up to the child to decide what is best for them (balance of stuttering versus managing the stuttering)." K.P. (May 2023)

"Very practical and informative course. I liked the focus on communicating effectively vs. fluency rate." L.S. (May 2023)

"So practical, so informative, so relatable, and doable! Discussing timing and tension and teaching students what they do in a moment of stuttering was all beneficial." R.R. (May 2023)

"I love how Dr. Yaruss supports the child and recognizes that there is no cure for stuttering. He helps the child learn to accept and how to cope with their stuttering. I loved actually seeing Dr. Yaruss as the slides were presented. It was more captivating! He had a nice pace, nice inflection that kept the participant engaged." H.O. (May 2023)

"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)

"Loved the treatment activities." J.V. (Feb. 2023)

"Instructor is great!" C.B. (Feb. 2023)

"The content is directly applicable." A.R. (Feb. 2023)

"The incorporation of research-based practices, how our profession has evolved in terms of how we view and approach stuttering therapy, theoretical considerations, as well as the immediate practical examples to use in therapy sessions. I liked the formatting, pacing, and real-world examples." A.P. (Jan. 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)

"Comprehensive goals rather than the focus on fluency enhancing techniques only. Thorough, organized, easy to listen to course." E.A. (Jan. 2023)

"I liked the focus on the overall aspects of speech. Course was easy to understand." N.C. (Jan. 2023)

"I liked the discussion of building the foundation of understanding the speech mechanism and spending more time on this so the child truly understands the WHY so they can then apply it to HOW to change their speech mechanism." N.S. (Jan. 2023)

"Techniques and strategies that assist in helping children during daily activities/tasks. Recent and up to date research on stuttering." L.E. (Dec. 2022)

"Very organized and great examples and thorough explanation of topics. Helping parents and teachers to understand stuttering was helpful." K.P. (Dec. 2022)

"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)

C.F. (Nov. 2022)

"I love that course explored the complete experience of stuttering and that stuttering is more than just stuttering. I learned that each child is different and goals are based on what is most important to the person that stutters." T.O. (Nov. 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)

"I liked the ten treatment goals and then 27 activities, the knowledge the speaker brings to the course, and the way he helps SLPs feel more confident. I have heard this presenter many times in person and online and he just gets better and better!" J.D. (Oct. 2022)

"Presenter was highly knowledgeable, interesting, and easy to listen to - excellent use of examples." L.P. (Oct. 2022)

"Language was simple, personable, easy to understand, easy to listen to. I also appreciated that the post test tested general understanding."  K.B. (Sept. 2022)

"It was very comprehensive to my learning and stuttering therapy that I provide. It offered helpful review of the techniques implemented even before the use of the strategies begin."  K.P.-P. (Sept. 2022)

"I loved the entire session."  P.H. (Sept. 2022)

"Laying a good, solid foundation to understanding the speech anatomy as well as exploring the student's method of stuttering so that we can reduce the discomfort they are feeling and then find a strategy to help them stutter more easily was nice to learn.  Dr. Yaruss is so interesting and engaging. I've heard him speak both in person and online and they are equally good because he knows the material so well."  E.P. (Sept. 2022)

"I liked the style and organization of presenter."  A.T. (Aug. 2022)

"I like that you could see the speaker! He was very enthusiastic."  J.A. (Aug. 2022)

"The course was very organized! Good goals and activity ideas."  M.H. (Aug. 2022)

"I am spending a lot more time on all aspects of "Learning about stuttering" - especially the importance of the student truly understanding the speech mechanism and how it works! This course was EXCELLLENT!  Dr. Yaruss is able to explain information in a format that is easy to understand and utilize. His procedures for treatment activities were invaluable for the goal areas he addressed!"  T.A. (Aug. 2022)

"I loved the whole idea of treating the whole child. I do this naturally and I felt better about what I am doing."  A.D. (Aug. 2022)

"Importance of learning about the speech mechanism and ways to teach that, methods for teaching changes to tension and timing, and the importance of addressing bullying before it is ever a problem, if possible."  T.T. (Aug. 2022)

"All of it! Loved the in-depth discussions on timing and tension, desensitization, and bullying. Excellent, practical information that truly makes sense. I loved the practical, up-to-date advice and activities. 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. Excellent information.  The very specific examples provided and discussed were exceptionally informative and I liked seeing the information that was written with objectives and goals displayed.
