Two SLPs Talk Autism and Positive Self-Concept

November 05, 2020

Today we look at  ways   SLPs can work with families to cultivate a strong sense of self in children with autism.


Of course, SLPs know the importance of  helping a child with autism  become empowered and  believe in themselves, and today’s guests make that a priority.



SLPs Rachel Dorsey and Jessie Ginsburg share  strategies and examples of ways to help foster  this positive  outlook with a strengths-based approach. They discuss the importance of word-choice and language when working with parents and how they address goal creation.
