Speech-Language Pathology, Integrated Care & Early Intervention

In Episode 7 of The Swann’s Nest Podcast, Dr. Nichole Hardy Swann sits down with Kelci Eaton, Speech-Language Pathologist and Director of Specialty Therapy at Exploration Kids Therapy, to discuss interdisciplinary pediatric care, early intervention, and her experience combining speech-language pathology with behavior analysis.

Kelci shares how working across disciplines has helped her better understand the connection between communication and behavior. She and Dr. Swann discuss how speech therapists, behavior analysts, psychologists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, and other providers can bring different perspectives together to support children and families.

The conversation also explores common questions parents face when developmental concerns arise, including whether to take a “wait and see” approach and how educational diagnoses differ from medical diagnoses.

Whether you're a parent, caregiver, student, or healthcare professional, this episode offers practical insight into early support, collaborative care, and helping families better understand the services available to their children.
