About Dr. Paul Fogle

Dr. Paul T. Fogle

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my website.  I have been a Speech-Language Pathologist since 1971 and have had extensive experience in a variety of areas.  The links you can click on can give you more information on areas that may be of particular interest to you.

I earned my Ph.D. at the University of Iowa and have been a university professor since 1976.  I have been teaching in the Department of Speech-Language Pathology at the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California since 1979, and teach courses in several different areas.

I maintain a private practice working with a variety of kinds and ages of clients, and many summers work full-time in acute, subacute, or convalescent hospital.  I have been an active therapist throughout my career.

I have presented at numerous state, national and international conventions on a variety of topics.  I also have been invited to present seminars and workshops around the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore.

Publications include articles on several topics, including neurological disorders in adults and children, attention deficit disorders, counseling, forensic speech-language pathology, and private practice. I am the author of Foundations of Communication Sciences and Disorders (2008, publisher: Delmar Learning), which is the most comprehensive text ever written for Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists and is the first to have all illustrations and photographs in full-color.  The Foundations text was written for both U.S. and international students because there are numerous citations of literature from journals of many countries (I wrote the book while on sabbatical from my university while I traveled for eight months around the world).  

I am also the primary author of the text Counseling Skills for Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists (2004, Delmar; 2nd edition in 2010) which is used in universities throughout the U.S. as well as Australia, Great Britain, and New Zealand.  Assessment and therapy materials include the Ross Information Processing Assessment-Geriatric (RIPA-G) (1996, Pro-Ed; 2nd edition in 2010); The Source for Safety: Cognitive Retraining for Independent Living (LinguiSystems, 2008); and the Classic Aphasia Therapy Stimuli (CATS) Kit  (2006, available through Plural Publishing in both English and Spanish).  I am currently working on two new textbooks that publishers have asked me to write.
