Show Notes

Today, we have Susie Harder on the show. Susie is a licesnced speech and language pathologist and is an experienced clinician who devotes much of her passion to working with children, teens, and adults who stutter. She works in both private practice and the school setting to help support children who stutter. In addition to direct therapy, Susie trains speech-language pathologists to work more effectively with students who stutter. Susie teaches the graduate-level fluency course at California State University, Fresno. During her time in Fresno Unified School District (2011-2015), Susie designed the framework for a Fluency Consultant role to utilize specialty skills and support Speech-Language Pathologists working with children who stutter. In addition, to a her quote day job, Susie also created the Junior Author’s program in September of 2020, days after the Creek Fire affected Big Creek and Pine Ridge area families. It was developed as an educationally-focused, social-emotional support for children and families feeling loss and grief due to the fire.  Schools across the nation (and world) have joined together to have their students involved in helping our local kids impacted by the fire. This was a great conversation that covered a lot and Susie and I clearly share a love for just one more thing.
