I have had the opportunity to work with the pediatric population for 19 years. Therapy for children with CAS needs to be motivating and functional. I often create a list of high frequency words that will best help the child communicate. Therapy sessions for young children are play based but target specific movement patterns and high frequency words. For older children, therapy includes more structured activities but with motivating activities to work towards each session. I provide verbal, visual, and tactile cues based on what each child needs to achieve his/her best productions.
Parents are welcome to attend sessions. Communication of what the child is working on and how it is being taught are important for generalization beyond therapy sessions. Each child is different and therefore the therapist and parents will decide if it is better to have the parents in the therapy room or not during sessions.
I have worked with a variety of AAC including but not limited to sigh language, picture exchange, iPad apps, and other voice output communication devices. AAC is used to bridge non-verbal and verbal communication and to decrease communication breakdowns that can lead to frustration.
