SPOTLIGHT ON

amanda copesAmanda Copes, director of the Speech & Hearing Clinic (seated in photo), was one of only 20 speech pathologists chosen to attend an intensive workshop on stuttering therapy. Copes participated in the workshop, 鈥淯sing Cognitive Approaches to Working with People Who Stutter,鈥 in Boston, from June 25-29. The workshop was co-sponsored by the Stuttering Foundation and Boston University.

鈥淭his intensive workshop introduced us to the principles of Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, both which help us as clinicians tap into recognizing our clients as the 鈥榚xperts鈥 in their communication, even if we as speech-language pathologists are considered the 鈥榗ommunication specialists鈥,鈥 Copes said. 鈥淎 message that I received about working with families of children who stutter that can be transferrable to many aspects of any one person鈥檚 holistic life is to learn to see what鈥檚 right 鈥 focus on the positive, acknowledge it and use it as a foundation to build upon.鈥
