Mary Lou Brecht Johnson, MS, CCC-SLP, joins host Char Boshart, MA, CCC-SLP, on this episode of the Speech Link podcast to explore parent coaching strategies that go beyond the ordinary to boost children’s language development. Parents want and need to know what they can do between therapy visits to help their children talk better. Coaching parents to optimize their daily verbal interactions benefits children, and some ways of talking are more effective than others for promoting verbal turn-taking and language growth.

About the Guest: Mary Lou Brecht Johnson, M.S., CCC-SLP, is a native of Akron, Ohio, and earned her BA at Ohio Wesleyan University in Delaware, OH. Then, after completing her master’s degree in Speech & Hearing at Washington University in St. Louis, Mary Lou headed to Denver for her first clinical position and never left. For over 40 years as a speech-language pathologist at Children’s Hospital Colorado, Mary Lou honed her methods while helping children and their parents.
