About me: <p><strong>Teen-Friendly Speech & Language Therapy Materials</strong></p><p>As a speech-language pathologist, I bring eight years of combined K-12 education experience to every resource I create. My journey began as a Special Education Paraprofessional and SLP Assistant, where I spent three years working directly with students with a wide range of communication needs and gained a hands-on understanding of what truly engages learners and supports meaningful progress. Prior to becoming a home health therapist, I spent 5 years as a school-based SLP across all K-12 grade levels, with a particular passion for working with secondary students.</p><p>Middle and high schoolers present unique challenges in speech-language therapy. They need materials that respect their age, hold their attention, and target skills that matter for real-world communication, academic success, and post-secondary readiness. Too often, therapy materials are designed for younger children, leaving secondary SLPs to adapt elementary-level content or create resources from scratch. That gap is exactly why I started designing Boom Decks.</p><p>Every deck I create is built specifically for secondary students: age-appropriate visuals and themes, vocabulary and scenarios relevant to teens, and activities that target the language, articulation, fluency, and social communication skills secondary students need most. My goal is to save fellow SLPs time by providing therapy materials for older students that feel relevant, respectful, and engaging.</p><p>Thank you for supporting a fellow SLP. I hope these decks make your caseload a little lighter and your sessions a lot more effective.</p>
