Overview

Tanya is a certified practising speech-language pathologist who has a particular clinical and research interest in both paediatric and adult language. She has experience in conducting mixed-methods studies.

Tanya’s research interests include exploring family-centred models of care and client outcomes using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health framework when working with young children who are ‘late talkers’ or who have a developmental language delay/disorder and their families.

Tanya is also passionate about the provision of accessible health information to adults who have aphasia post-stroke and to their family members. Tanya undertook her doctoral research within the Communication Disability Centre (CDC) at The University of Queensland. She is particularly interested in patient education and ensuring people with aphasia, their family, and friends receive appropriate health information and access to services across the continuum of care.

  • Development of a standardised tool to capture parents’ use of language facilitation strategies

    Parent-child interaction therapy is widely used by speech-language pathologists (SLPs) in the treatment of developmental language difficulties. This family-centred intervention involves coaching parents to use language facilitation strategies, such as commenting on their child’s interests. There is currently no standardised tool available for SLPs to rate parents’ use of language facilitation strategies. This project will develop a standardised tool for capturing parents’ use of language facilitation strategies in a clinical context. SLPs require a validated tool to guide intervention and evaluate outcomes of their family-centred SLP service.

  • Family members educating family members about aphasia

    Family members play a vital role in accessing health information for people with aphasia and have rated information about aphasia as their most important informational need post-stroke. The need for information to be provided to family members proactively and flexibly, particularly in the early period post-stroke has been recognised. This project will focus on developing and evaluating a resource for family members new to living with aphasia, co-developed with family members who have previously journeyed though the early phases of the care-continuum.
