Reflecting on the many times I have doubted my place in SLT, when doing a PhD, when moving into academia, when writing this book..because I never saw someone that looked like me doing those things. So, this photo is for any minoritised SLTs and students in that place of doubt.

A wonderful opportunity for an #slta or #slt2b. I would dearly love to do this, but it's just a bit too far away for me.
I’m looking for an SLT student or assistant to work with a client with global aphasia under my supervision once a week for at least 6 months. Client is in Hertfordshire. Please DM me if interested. Will be paid for time and travel!
