🛑 RED FLAG ALERT 🛑⁠

Speech goals that focus on masking are HARMFUL for autistic children (e.g., reducing stimming, ignoring echolalia, forcing eye contact).⁠

Here are a few red flags to look out for when choosing an SLP:⁠

❌ Tries to "fix" your child⁠

❌ Does not provide updates on your child's progress⁠

❌ Does not re-evaluate their goals based on your child's progress⁠

❌ Does not communicate with you or include you in your child's treatment plan⁠

Instead, look for a therapist who ...⁠

✅ Is neurodiversity affirming⁠

✅ Documents progress clearly and openly⁠

✅ Re-evaluates their treatment plan based on your child's unique profile and progress⁠

✅ Communicates with you consistently and clearly⁠

✅ Includes you and your child in the treatment plan using functional and meaningful goals⁠

What else did I miss?⁠

❤️ DOUBLE TAP if you love your current therapist.⁠
