OPT for Speech Clarity and Feeding | Oral Placement Therapy Textbook — TalkTools®
OPT (Oral Placement Therapy) for Speech Clarity and Feeding
OPT (Oral Placement Therapy) for Speech Clarity and Feeding is Sara Rosenfeld-Johnson's foundational textbook for the Oral Placement Therapy framework. This comprehensive text gives speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, and other clinicians the theoretical foundation, assessment tools, and hierarchy-based treatment framework needed to implement OPT for clients with speech clarity and feeding disorders. It is required reading for clinicians enrolled in TalkTools OPT training courses and serves as the primary clinical reference for the jaw-lip-tongue hierarchy that underpins the OPT approach. A Spanish edition is available as a separate listing in the TalkTools books and resources collection. Clinic directors building an OPT program library will also find the full OPT textbook range a useful staff development resource, and the oral motor tools collection provides the clinical tools referenced throughout the text.
