Grad school struggles
Staying up until 2am finishing this before clinic the next day
What is a "SOAP note?"
The thing grad students say they’ll do after finals
What is "sleep?"
This matters more than knowing everything
What is "effort?"
What do clients think you do all day
What is “play games”?
Something you’ve done that you once thought you couldn’t
What is "finishing grad school?"
The moment you realize your session plan is not working
What is "panic?"
Something that is productive even though it feels unproductive
What is "resting?"
Something you bring to every session besides knowledge
What is "compassion?"
What you’re actually doing
What is "therapy with a purpose?"
A strength you developed this year
What is "confidence?" - share your answers!
The phrase you say when you’re overwhelmed but still showing up
What is “I’m fine”?
What burnout usually starts with
What is "not taking breaks?"
What growth actually requires
What is "making mistakes?"
Your reaction when a session goes perfectly
What is "I'm awesome!"
What this journey required from you
What is "resilience?"
When your supervisor walks in unexpectedly
What is "instant anxiety?"
A reminder we probably all needed this semester
What is “you are doing enough”?
The voice in your head that says “you can’t do this”
What is "doubt?"
When a kid says something completely unexpected
What is "trying not to laugh?"
Something you should be proud of
What is "everything?"
Something you definitely said at least once this year
What is “I’m so tired”?
Something future SLPs need to care for just as much as their clients
What is "themselves?"
What you should remind yourself when you feel unprepared
What is “I am still learning”?
The real MVP of grad school
What is "coffee or snacks?"
What you are becoming
What is "amazing clinicians"
Thank you for all that you do !! Happy national SLP month <3
