Description

Welcome to the SLP Corner podcast! I’m Shannon Briggs, clinic owner of Speech Meta Vancouver Therapy Services Inc. and a pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist based in Vancouver, Canada.

I also dive into areas like emotional literacy, social-emotional learning, autism, grad school, private practice, and more. Plus, don’t miss our monthly SLP-focused book club.
