Watch our Free Masterclass: Echolalia & Child-led Therapy
This free masterclass is designed for parents and professionals who are looking for a basic introduction to echolalia and gestalt language development (delayed echolalia is the first stage!). We will also discuss how child-led therapy can help support this type of language development.
ENROLL FOR FREEWelcome to Meaningful Speech® !
Meaningful Speech® LLC was founded to educate speech-language professionals, parents, and those working in related fields about gestalt language development and delayed echolalia. We teach you how to take the research and apply it directly to therapy or working at home with your child. We are on a mission to educate everyone about the “other” type of language development they never learned about in higher education.
What the Meaningful Speech® Community has to say about our courses and products:
S.D., Parent
This experience has opened my eyes that there is not just one way to learn language. Language development is not a "one-size-fits-all" approach. Finding the right therapist that understands how your child learns is key. I would encourage all parents and professionals to educate themselves about NLA and the benefits it can bring to children who need language support.
Melissa, Speech-Langauge Pathologist
A MUST for all SLPs working with Autistic children. I have and will continue to recommend it. It gives vital information for us SLPs on how to work with a population prevalent in the pediatric world.
Bettina, Parent & Speech-Language Pathologist
I hit a wall with my son and his language development. He was not diagnosed autistic yet when I found this course, but I realized how much of a GLP he was through my own deep dive of research and consulting with my grad school friend, Jamie Boyle. She recommended the Meaningful Speech IG. Through just some tips from social media I changed my approach, I saw progress and changes in my son when I began to really acknowledge his scripts, and made me become more aware of my own childhood history as a GLP. Now we are both diagnosed autistic. This course has made me make so many changes in how I treat my own autistic and GLP patients at work. I’m so thankful for this course and am excited to continue learning and practicing what I’ve learned.
