Cluttering Assessment and Treatment
Dates Available: 09/22/2025
Registration Deadline: 08/31/2030
In this podcast episode, Kathleen Scaler Scott, Ph.D., CCC-SLP provides speech-language pathologists with an introductory, practical framework for identifying, assessing, and treating cluttering. Using the "Lowest Common Denominator" (LCD) framework, clinicians will learn to identify the core features of cluttering. Dr. Scaler Scott also addresses how to assess cluttering within the context of other related conditions or co-occurring diagnoses. In addition to assessment, Dr. Scaler Scott explores the real-life impact of cluttering on communication, participation, and self-perception. Participants will gain practical strategies for treatment, including techniques for rate regulation, improving naturalness, navigating listener interactions, and promoting self-advocacy.
Learning Objectives: Upon completion, participants will be able to:
• Identify core characteristics of cluttering using the LCD framework
• Distinguish cluttering from related conditions through differential diagnosis.
• Implement functional treatment strategies to support speech management of cluttering
• Describe components involved in assessment and treatment of life impact of cluttering
