Yay for Professional Kudos!

All of the Speech and Language Pathologists I've worked with, studied with, done research with, or collaborated ideas with have been fabulous. I work for a very cool company that prides itself on being better than the best. Perfect fit for me, Right?! This past semester/quarter of work was quite stressful. I've had crazy cases all year long but one case in particular brought out several big guns with lots of ammo. I entered and left each meeting thinking "don't screw up, don't screw up." As a first year therapist I was still learning the ins and outs of the system as well as transferring what I learned in school to my practices. I'm from Massachusetts and worked in the system for 2 years, relocated to Georgia for graduate school and learned their laws, and started my first year of employment in South Carolina. I had a lot of standards, rules, regulations, and criteria to re-learn and I was always worried I was thinking I had the wrong states regulations on my brain. With a lot of help I managed to make it through my first year. This doesn't mean I won't land in court but at least I still have my license for now right!! 

My Moment of Fame on the front page of my companies website!: (Um- I'm Wicked excited about this incase you didn't pick up on it!)

Kudos to Karen Astin and a team of therapists from a school Director in SC:  "I don't think I have ever been prouder of a team than I was today.  You guys did an awesome job on the evaluation.  It was a comprehensive report.  Your presentation "oozed" with knowledge and confidence! Our children are lucky to have all of you.  Keep up the good work."
