An Incredible Cultural and Clinical Experience
January 13, 2026by: Chloe YoungI am a two time Therapy Abroad student traveler and I absolutely love Therapy Abroad! I went on the Belize trip about a year ago and absolutely knew I wanted to go on another one. I was excited to go again with Therapy Abroad to Thailand! This program was absolutely amazing and stretched me in ways that I would not have gotten in the university setting in the US. The observation opportunities and clinical experiences that were provided throughout the program were so incredible and helped enhance my clinical skills regarding cultural competency, AAC treatment, and modeling. This also was an interdisciplinary trip with 1 group being CSD and the other being PT/OT. I really enjoyed practicing interdisciplinary collaboration and communication. This experience not only provided me with amazing clinical and educational opportunities, but also allowed me to meet new lifetime friends and colleagues both in the states and in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Also the itinerary was organized and outlined perfectly by my amazing program facilitator from Chiang Mai (loved P’Pann so much!) and she was willing to answer all questions related to Thailand and Thai culture. There was a perfect blend of clinical and cultural experiences to better appreciate and learn the culture and clinical populations of Chiang Mai. If you ever consider going on a Therapy Abroad, specifically for Thailand, I would highly recommend you do so because it will change your life and perspective on clinical work.
I learned a lot!
August 16, 2025by: Jina Wu - United StatesDominica was a country I haven’t heard about prior to coming here, but I learned a lot and had a lot of fun. I got to immerse myself in the culture here and experience the beauty of this island. I also got to get clinical experience that I probably wouldn’t have been able to get in the United States.
I would do it again!
August 16, 2025by: Courtney Warren - United StatesI feel that I have learned a lot through all the clinical work that I was able to do with my peers. I enjoyed getting to learn about the people of Dominica while also being able to share the knowledge that I have learned over the years studying speech pathology.
