The Life Participation Approach to Aphasia

Listen in as Lingraphica’s Chief Scientist Dr. Richard Steel interviews Dr. Audrey Holland.

Dr. Holland is well known for her Life Participation Approach to Aphasia, which places priority on the life concerns of those affected by aphasia and assists them in their efforts to return to active life. You’ll learn the primary benefits to people with aphasia who join the programs that embrace the LPAA.

Make sure you listen until near the end to hear the important discussion of how technology is benefitting those with aphasia. One example is international Skype groups. Another is the study which Dr. Steele and Lingraphica conducted with the SCALE Center in Baltimore.
