218. Stop Winging Consonant Cluster Targets: Apply the Evidence-Based Complexity Approach


Listen Later

Are your consonant cluster clients stuck — and so are you?

If you're spending more time hunting for the right targets than actually running therapy, this episode is your reset button.

In today's episode, we're diving deep into selecting consonant clusters.  

We're breaking down how to select targets strategically, sequence them with intention, and finally see the carryover you've been waiting for.

Whether you're a seasoned SLP or new to building your clinical confidence, you'll walk away with a clearer framework and a fresh perspective on why some clients plateau and exactly how to get them moving again.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Why random target selection is quietly sabotaging your data
  • The developmental and phonological principles that should be driving your cluster choices
  • How to align targets with your client's unique error patterns for faster progress
  • What the research actually says about cluster intervention sequences
