When a child is struggling in more than one area of language, how do you decide what to work on first? In this episode, Carrie Clark, SLP and creator of the Speech and Language Kids Hub, shares her approach to tackling this common challenge—using a cycles approach for language therapy. Inspired by the classic cycles method for phonology, this flexible strategy helps SLPs target multiple areas of language without having to pick just one.
