Coming up with fresh, attention-grabbing conversation starters every day is surprisingly hard, even for speech therapy professionals. Think of this app as your talk facilitator, taking the pressure and planning out of starting and maintaining dialogue while you monitor how your clients use their speech strategies.

"This is the app that is going to pave the way for converting speech therapists to the digital age."
- Ryan Knoblauch, SLP, The Speech Knob

GETTING STARTED IS AS EASY AS 1, 2, 3

Target higher-level expressive language, pragmatic, problem-solving, speech, and cognitive-communication goals with open-ended conversation starters. Here’s how it works.

1) CHOOSE YOUR CATEGORIES. Tailor your experience with specific topics like Food or Health, or select all topics for free-flowing discussion that could go anywhere! You can always change the settings to see only age-appropriate categories for children, teens, or adults.

2) START THE CONVERSATION. Look at the picture, then touch any of the 10 buttons to see a question. The questions on the left are simpler (like “What is…?”) while the ones on the right are more complex (“How do you know…?”). Hear the question aloud, record your own audio, and score answers as you go.

3) USE YOUR STRATEGIES. While taking turns discussing the answers to the questions, use your word-finding strategies, smooth speech techniques, or other personalized therapy approaches to communicate more clearly.

ALL DONE? E-mail an automatically generated summary of your results, along with any audio, or share the results to a PDF, file storage, printer, or copy/paste.

GET EVERY FEATURE YOU NEED IN ONE EASY APP

Latest reviews of Conversation Therapy app for iPhone and iPad

Conversation Therapy
Versatile app with excellent photographs and conversation cues. I have used this with teens and adults with ASD, and in group and individual aphasia/cognitive communication treatment. Add this app to your kit!
Love this app
Great for maintaining topic and expanding on thoughts and ideas. Great for all age levels!!!!
Great app!
I had been waiting for an app like this. This is a great app for the adult clients that I see. Nice pictures, easy to use, and clearly not just a kids app adapted for use with adults (feels "grown up"). Highly recommend their apps!
Great app for lots of speech goals
I love Conversation Therapy and the way its designed really lets you utilize it to accomplish many goals. Ive used it obviously as conversation starters but the variety of prompts provided really give you many options. Also the pictures and prompts in general are targeted to adults and helps preserve dignity in the therapy process by not forcing them to use things that are too child like. Im a grad student in speech pathology and as I continue in my career I hope to be able to purchase more of these apps. I just wish they were less expensive!
SLP
I have found this app to be very versatile. I work on the brain injury and stroke units and find that it can be used with patients at all levels. It is really useful for helping to elicit language from patients.
