Discourse-level treatments for aphasia that show promise in improving word and sentence production in discourse have recently emerged in the aphasia research literature (Dipper et al., 2021). By focusing on both microstructure (the specific words, phrases, and sentences used in the discourse) and macrostructure (the organization of the discourse as a whole), discourse-level treatments aim to help clients with aphasia speak more fully in everyday life (Armstrong, 2000; Dipper et al., 2021). This resource is an intermediate-level resource for speech-language pathologists who are interested in learning more about discourse-level treatment and highlights a variety of discourse-level treatment approaches that clinicians may consider when working with clients with aphasia.
