Developing a collaborative and emotionally supportive relationship with patients and their significant others is recognized as a core component of SLP practice. However, SLPs sometimes feel ill-equipped in providing counseling to their patients and may experience challenges in collaborating with them. To address this issue, we conducted a scoping study aiming to summarize findings from the literature regarding SLP students’ development of competencies related to counseling and collaboration, and to identify research gaps in this literature. Descriptive statistics will be presented to report on the frequency and distribution of the studies included in our review according to different variables including country, design, competencies targeted, and pedagogical methods used. The most salient themes characterizing this literature will also be presented.

Learning Objectives:

Name three pedagogical methods often studied or reported in the literature pertaining to the development of counseling and collaboration competencies among SLP students
Define three key themes characterizing the state of knowledge in the development of counseling and collaboration competencies among SLP students
Describe two research gaps in the literature related to the development of counseling and collaboration competencies among SLP students
