Press reviews for: Using Intensive Interaction with a Person with a Social or Communicative Impairment
Speech & Language Therapy in Practice
This is a practical, enjoyable, easy-to-read guide, whose title does not do the contents justice. Stepping away from academia, this book is of equal value to those wishing to dip their first toe in as it is to those needing to structure substantial experience into bite sized pieces for training and supporting others... They address key questions of how to start, progress through and evaluate sessions, and finish with discussion of how to develop competencies.
The Frontline of Learning Disability Journal
It offers a good workmanlike introduction to intensive interaction. It is non-technical and very accessible... It is clear that the writers have a deep knowledge and commitment to intensive interaction and these qualities underpin the worth of the book. This book is of value to those considering using intensive interaction in their work with people with profound and complex intellectual disability and as such may be considered a useful introduction to the subject.
