*From Silence to Sound: Mahrosh's Journey to Finding Her Voice*
Mahrosh was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) at the age of 3.5. At that time, she was non-verbal, communicating only through gestures and cries. Their parents and caregivers worried that they might never find her voice.
*Early Intervention*
With the guidance of a speech-language pathologist (SLP) and occupational therapist (OT) and ABA Mahrosh began intensive therapy sessions.
*Breakthroughs*
At 5 years old, Mahrosh spoke her first words: "mama" and "dada." This milestone sparked hope and motivation.
*Progress and Persistence is the key *
*Current Success
Now, Mahrosh can
- Engages in meaningful conversations with family and friends
- Expresses emotions and needs effectively
- Participates in classroom discussions
- Reads and writes with ease
*Lessons Learned*
Mahorsh's journey teaches us:
- Early intervention is crucial
- Consistency and patience are key
- Every small step leads to significant progress
- Believing in a child's potential fosters growth
*Gratitude*
"We're forever grateful for [Child's Name]'s therapists, educators, and support network. Their dedication helped our child find their voice." – [Parent's Name]
This success story highlights the importance of early intervention, persistence, and support in overcoming speech delays in Autism. Every child's journey is unique, but with the right tools and mindset, they can thrive.

Sensory success!
After the gradual desensitization process (relieving sensory sensitivities) in OT sessions our student is now able comfortably wear a scarf for five minutes, which earlier she never liked.
Gentle exposures and positive approaches in sensory therapy sessions helped her cope with sensory triggers really well.

Clearly explaining, demonstrating, and reminding children about these rules and doing so often is how they will learn. Testing limits, learning though play, and being very active are all age appropriate behaviors.
