The goal for stage 1 GLP’s is for the child to build a “library” of gestalts that communicate a variety of functions to include requests for help, transitions, comments, share joy/other emotions, self-advocacy, protests,etc. Playtime With Tor on YouTube models language in a fun, musical, meaningful manner for all kids, but specifically for gestalt language processors. I highly recommend giving her videos a watch! Many of my current clients have picked up gestalts while watching!

I no longer write goals about play because all play is ok and it develops as cognition and language develop! When I allow a child to lead play, I build connection, relationship and trust. And THATS when the magic can happen.

This is where you will find me today soaking up some sun where I will be reading, listening to the waves crashing and probably taking a little snooze.

It's not to change who a child is. For Autistic children, meaningful therapy begins with understanding and respecting their unique ways of experiencing the world. The goal isn't to make a child appear "less Autistic", it's to support their development, strengthen relationships, and help them participate in everyday life in ways that are authentic to them.
