@kaelynn_vp: When an autistic person drops to the floor, adding more pressure usually keeps them stuck LONGER. Instead, meet them where they are. Make the next step smaller. Focus on tiny moments of forward motion. Sometimes, helping someone regulate begins with a chair, a joke, a shared silly moment, or simply just making the next step FEEL possible. 💞 I can only fit so much in one video. For more autism tips, I wrote Life on the Bridge - available as a hardcover and audiobook! 🥰 #autistic #autism #autismawareness #neurodivergent #therapist

I sit and wait with no words sometimes, then when theyre feeling better I give choices. racing to another spot or being goofy is fun

These are great ideas, but it is also extremely challenging to implement in a crowded hallway full of other students. We try to give students extra transition time, but sometimes things cannot be avoided

these strategies are good i usually try a chair but the others i didn’t think about. tbh a lot of times i just sit with the learners i work with and when their ready they get up

Do you know how comforting it is to see that how I naturally support with my son is exactly what you’re advising . I’m doing something right 🥹
