Clinical Supervision

Liberator has assembled an outstanding team of speech pathologists who are experienced to conduct clinical supervision in the specific area of Augmentative & Alternative Communication. Liberator staff have experience providing supervision within the government and not for profit sector. They are familiar with a range of supervision tools and techniques and have utilised these in their workplace.

The team has access to a wealth of practical tools and education resources through staff & associates of the Prentke Romich family of companies including PRC, Saltillo, Liberator Ltd (UK) & PRD (Germany). Liberator’s Australian staff has trained under some of America’s leading AAC exponents including Gail Van Tatenhove, Dr Katya Hill, John Halloran, Bruce Baker, Tracy Kovach, & Russell Cross.

What Liberator can provide

Packages can be purchased and/or tailor made to suit your needs. Some people prefer to think about individual clients and discuss these during supervision with clinical issues whereas others prefer a more formal structure. Whether you are an individual clinician, or an organisation wanting to upskill new recruits, Liberator will be able to accommodate your needs. Our joint ambition is to simply strengthen the quality & effectiveness of AAC throughout Australia. We have modules available to help develop your skills in AAC assessment, implementation and documentation (including prescription, reviews and advocacy). These modules typically contain the following information:

  • Research evidence
  • Practical activities to try in sessions e.g. games to try
  • Implementation resources e.g. picture cards, low tech boards
  • Templates e.g. data sheets

You can choose a bespoke supervision package to suit your individual needs; factoring in consideration of your available time, funding situation and depth of topics required.
