Environmental Modification
|
Occupational Therapy -> Sensory
|
Environmental Modification involves adapting or arranging physical spaces to support the sensory needs of individuals with sensory processing disorders, autism, ADHD, or other conditions that affect how they perceive and interact with their surroundings. This intervention aims to create environments that enhance comfort, safety, and functional independence.

|
Fluency Shaping Therapy Approach
|
Speech Therapy -> Fluency
|
Fluency shaping therapy is a highly structured approach where techniques are implemented by the SLP to increase the length and complexity of the fluent response of a patient who stutters. Fluency shaping techniques establish fluent speech by eliminating stuttering in a controlled stimulus environment. (Guitar & Peters, 1980; Peters & Guitar 1991; Shaprio 1999; Healey & Scott, 1995).
