Ended the day on a high! ⭐️ one of my Emma B Speech Therapy superstars had one goal this year - to achieve a grade 4 in her English Language GCSE. She got a 3 in her mock exams and needed a 4 to secure her college place. She wants to be an Architect ❤️

Well, swipe to check out that grade!! 🤩🤩

M - you have worked so blummin hard these past few months in the face of your language challenges. I am in awe of you! And I’m so excited to watch your next chapter unfold. Forever your cheerleader! Well done! 👏

If I knew then what I know now….

⭐️ Joint SALT & OT - working with my OT pals has become central to my practice. Communication doesn’t happen in a vacuum…understanding and supporting a child’s sensory profile is crucial for regulation, wellbeing, learning and of course, communication.

⭐️ Child-led therapy has changed my working world. No more session plans or trying to structure sessions for my gain. I let children lead and show me what they want to do. I stay curious and join their world. This has increased connection, joy and progress tenfold! Yes, it means thinking on my feet and being creative, but I try to embrace that challenge every session!

⭐️ How can I possibly support a child’s communication if I don’t understand their world and their passions!? Building an authentic relationship is key and has to be based on trust, safety and connection. This takes time, and that is ok!

⭐️ Non or minimally speaking does not mean non thinking! My kiddos understand and know more words than they can say. They are bright and have amazing strengths - it’s our job to harness these strengths and grow their communication skills authentically, meaningfully and naturally.

⭐️ Social skills or play goals where the aim is to make an individual look more neurotypical - that’s a nope. All play is ok and there is no play “hierarchy”. Autism is a different neurotype, not a deficit to be corrected.
