Dr. Ianessa Humbert, a renowned swallowologist, shares her journey from academia to founding Swallowing Wellness, a Maryland-based clinic focused on swallowing disorders. Despite facing an ethics complaint from ASHA and needing to retake the Praxis, she successfully navigated the Maryland licensing process without reinstating her CCC. Dr. Humbert emphasized the importance of autonomy in SLP practice and the challenges of credentialing without ASHA certification. She highlights her clinic's innovative approach and touches on the broader implications of SLP autonomy and the potential for private practice to drive systemic change.
