WholeStory Speech incorporates the foundations and fundamental principles of the SEST Approach to elevate long-established speech therapy interventions to meet your child’s needs in today’s social and digital age. Therapy sessions are infused with SEST fundamentals that put an emphasis on working with a child as they come to therapy that day.
Quiet? No problem. Let’s use some visuals! Antsy and ever-moving? Let’s start with calming down using the SEST fundamental mindfulness practice, Second to Check-In and Notice. Don’t feel like saying much? We can work with that! That’s Today’s Child! No matter how a child “arrives” at therapy the SEST practitioner knows how to gently motivate the child to engage, coaxes the child’s wholestory out of them, and teaches children to find answers within themselves.
Parents are an integral part of WholeStory Speech sessions, and regular sessions with parents-only are part of using the SEST Approach. Parents learn what their children are learning, about noticing and expressing their social and emotional selves, listening, truly listening to each other, and adopting a flexible perspective toward dealing with life’s many situations.
“This work helps me and my daughter to communicate. It helps me to stay focused and calm, and helps her to explain herself, and show her real self.”
