@charliehasapen #EauCLamarAphasia It’s definitely important to make sure each person with aphasia feels comfortable! Building relationships can really make a difference in therapy. We’ve learned in class that humor is a great way to build rapport!

The Life Participation Approach to Aphasia provides an aphasia-friendly environment by minimizing barriers, focusing on strengths, & using appropriate supports. These supports are ones that can be carried out into real life situations! #EauCLamarAphasia @charliehasapen

NeuroService Alliance uses an LPAA approach to provide a supportive, aphasia-friendly environment for members.

Agree that this visual is awesome! It really shows that with consistent practice over time, the brain continues to recover. #EauCLamarAphasia

I love this visual. Right after the #Stroke, I felt everything was a big deal. I felt as if I ruined all our plans for the future. With time everything about this time feels lighter.

It’s so inspiring to see survivors using their personal experience to advocate and spread awareness!

Emma’s stroke left her with several long-term disabilities, aphasia and unable to return to work. She now attends one of the Stroke Association's Life After Stroke Groups to help raise awareness of the charity & stroke.

Aphasia can bring upon frustration, isolation, & often leads to depression. It’s important that we advocate to give these individuals the support they need & deserve ❤️ #EaucLamarAphasia

A member said this powerful quote...❤️“Sometimes, it’s so #frustrating having #aphasia...You want to say something but can't find the words, You want to express something but can't convey the feeling... “ Imagine how #lonely that must feel?
