SLP Coffee Talk

BONUS: Helping Students and Teachers Understand What We Actually Do


Listen Later

Hallie chats about how to help students and teachers understand our role as SLPs.

In this bonus episode of SLP Coffee Talk, Hallie shares the moment that completely changed how she saw her role as a secondary SLP—when one simple question, “Why am I here?” sparked a major aha. She dives into how uncovering the why behind language struggles inspired Chapter 2 of her new book, The Secondary SLP Roadmap, and reshaped her approach to therapy. If you’ve ever wondered how to explain your impact or define your value as an SLP, this one’s for you.



Bullet Points to Discuss: 

  • The question that changed how Hallie saw her role as an SLP. 
  • Root cause vs. symptom—what students really need support with. 
  • Why SLPs bring unique value beyond the classroom. 
  • How to confidently explain your impact as a secondary SLP. 
  • A sneak peek into Chapter 2 of The Secondary SLP Roadmap.



Here’s what we learned: 

  • Knowing your why turns confusion into confidence. 
  • You’re not just fixing sounds—you’re unlocking language. 
  • Clarity about your role helps everyone see your impact. 
  • Dig deeper, not wider, to make real progress. 
  • You’re the expert who helps students—and teachers—connect the dots.
