Episode Synopsis

Welcome back to All Things SLP! Today, we’re kicking off a brand-new series all about Early Intervention—my absolute passion and area of expertise. In this first episode, we’re diving into the case history process and why it’s more than just a routine intake form.Many SLPs glance at case history as just another checkbox, but when working with little ones, knowing the right questions to ask can make all the difference. I’ll walk you through key areas you shouldn’t overlook, from birth history and feeding challenges to motor development, sensory concerns, and family history. Plus, I’ll share tips for asking parents the right questions—because sometimes, a simple "yes or no" answer isn’t enough.This is the foundation for effective therapy, so don’t skip this step! Tune in now and get ready to look at case history in a whole new way. And be sure to join me next week as we continue this EI series and discuss how to determine where to begin therapy with a new client!The Speech Therapy Toolbox MembershipEarly Intervention Academy course for SLPsConnect with Erin:InstagramFacebookemail: [email protected]
