In this episode we get into: 

Helen’s experiences as a Speech Pathologist working with children  

How Joyful Little Voices came about 

What transdisciplinary practice is  

Multidisciplinary versus transdisciplinary  

What transdisciplinary practice looks like across government funded or private services 

Key aspects of delivering care in a transdisciplinary way that clinicians need to know about 

Strategies about how clinicians can decide what sits in their bucket versus what could be shared cross their team 

What the benefits are of the keyworker model 

What the barriers or some of the challenges are in clinicians or therapists picking up this model and starting to use that kind of a model 

The steps or specific strategies therapists could take to try and move towards that end goal of transdisciplinary care in their practice
