Our CEO and Founder, Destiny Johnson, on the De Facto Leaders Podcast!





We are pleased to announce that our Clinical Director, CEO, and Founder, Destiny Johnson, was recently featured in an episode of the De Facto Leaders Podcast with Dr. Karen Dudek-Brannan. In this episode, Destiny shared her expertise on dynamic assessment, a key area of specialization in her clinical practice.


Dynamic assessment shifts away from traditional, one-time testing, instead focusing on a child’s learning potential and their response to a mediated learning experience. This approach allows clinicians to observe a child’s language learning process and the strategies they naturally employ, offering insight into their ability to adapt and change within a brief period of time with targeted support. Destiny discussed the importance of culturally responsive assessment methods to ensure that children are accurately identified for support within school settings.


Destiny’s commitment to fair and effective evaluation practices reflects her dedication to advancing inclusive and accurate assessment strategies in the field. She will also be presenting on this topic at the ASHA 2024 Annual Convention in Seattle, offering further insights into practical applications of dynamic assessment.


You can listen to Destiny's conversation with Dr. Dudek-Brannan on this episode or tune in through major streaming platforms.
