This week we're joined by special guest, Dr. Bill Ahearn, to discuss response interruption and redirection (RIRD). We discuss the fascinating history of how this popular treatment for vocal stereotypy came to be, the ins and outs of implementing the treatment, when to use it, and, more importantly, when NOT to use it. Plus, some helpful troubleshooting tips for practitioners and why you shouldn't pronounce it "rrrrird".
