Join Sarina Murrell, MS, CCC-SLP, for an engaging exploration of how speech-language pathologists and occupational therapists can work together to support children’s communication and regulation skills.
For many children, progress in communication is closely linked to their ability to regulate emotions, process sensory input, and participate meaningfully in daily routines. This is where SLPs and OTs naturally intersect. Yet collaboration can sometimes feel unclear. When roles overlap or messages differ, it can make progress more difficult for families and providers alike.
This course examines the intersection of speech and occupational therapy in areas such as self-regulation, emotional processing, play, and feeding. Sarina will highlight how clarifying professional roles, identifying shared goals, and developing joint strategies can empower families and improve child outcomes.
Through practical, evidence-based examples, you’ll learn how to communicate effectively across disciplines, align goals, and build shared frameworks that strengthen teamwork and consistency across environments. By fostering collaboration rather than duplication, you’ll leave with actionable tools to create more cohesive, family-centered care that enhances each child’s confidence and connection in communication.
