Thanks. Your Transition Signal Guide is on its way to your inbox. If you don't see it in a few minutes, check your promotions or spam folder. And there's something you should know...
For parents of non-speaking and minimally speaking autistic children
The guide gives you one of five tools. The one Dr. Acotto uses first isn't in it.
First-Then removes one demand: not knowing what comes next. When your transition breaks down for a different reason, you need the tool for that one.
Every transition your child makes asks their nervous system to do five things at once. Stop an activity it's deeply engaged in. Hold the next activity in working memory the whole way there. Recalibrate to different light, sound and space. Manage the uncertainty of what this one will feel like today. And read your nervous system while it does all of that.
Five tools, and each one removes a different demand. You won't use all five at once, and you shouldn't. You'll find out which demand is breaking your transition, then you'll use the tool for that one.
Regulate yourself before you approach your child.
The Caregiver Regulation Check is numbered five. In practice, it's the one Dr. Acotto does first.
