- Book Synopsis
- This book offers a neurodiversity-affirming speech, language and communication therapy, with accessible strategies that nurture new skills by embracing the characteristics and behaviours that are core to each individual child. Therapy that is truly inclusive needs to be more than just setting language targets and getting children to tick boxes. Supporting Children' s Communication The Play Way puts forward a holistic, child-centred therapy that takes into account each child' s emotional wellbeing, focus and regulation, allowing for a meaningful connection during each session. The author offers guidance on understanding behaviour, supporting regulation and identifying different play patterns, combining theory with everyday examples to create practical strategies that will easily translate into the daily lives of parents, teachers, therapists and support staff. The book includes accessible information on both language and play development, and how this can be used to create child therapy ideas that nurture new skills in a safe environment, encouraging all children to reach their full potential.
