#23 Understanding highly sensitive kids: a holistic approach to speech therapy, with Lauren Conley
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this conversation with Lauren from Stuttering Free Kids, we dive deep into the role parents play when kids need therapy support, specifically related to speech.
Lauren is a pediatric speech pathologist specializing in highly sensitive kids. She tells us how we can recognize if we have a highly sensitive child and then be able to help and support them in a much better way. We also explore the relationship between these kids and particular situations related to speech.
I think parents with kids struggling with stuttering, and any parent, can really benefit from Lauren's holistic and integrated approach on how to support our children when they go through challenges.
I hope you enjoy this interview!
