My child who does not speak and has autism spent his afternoon transforming empty bottles into something meaningful.
With quiet concentration, he dipped his fingers in colors and traced shapes only he understands.
No plan, no instructions just instinct guiding every line and curve.
Each bottle became a reflection of his inner world: bold, layered, and alive.
As I watched, I realized he wasn’t just painting bottles, he was telling a story without words.
A real story, created in silence, where autism becomes art and expression finds its own voice.🥹❤️🫂

A non-profit organization that serves adults with autism/IDD has reached out to me for a referral of a part-time or contracted Behavior Specialist or BCBA.

This person would write and maintain behavior support plans, train staff on the plans, and give overall strategy recommendations, and support for the staff.

The hours would be flexible although they would need to participate in a scheduled monthly psychotropic medication review with the physician that comes on-site to help manage psychotropic medications.

If you know of anybody who may be interested, would you please ask them to reach out to me? My email is rebeccaakernlpc@outlook.com

There have been one too many su***de losses in Kevin’s and my circle lately. Some, not all, of these signs may be present. This reminds us, myself included, that even just one, is of concern.

Spot the signs, save a life. Learn the warning signs of su***de and share this graphic to help others recognize them. If you see these signs in someone, urge them to contact a mental health professional or the 988 Lifeline at 988Lifeline.org

Corporations today are eager to build diverse, inclusive workforces—many genuinely want to hire and support people with disabilities. But here’s the rub: for this to really work, the disability community needs to be visible, to be findable. And that’s not a small ask. Disclosure is hard. It’...

There has been some recent heartbreaking su***de losses in Kevin’s and my circle. A dear friend lost her son and Kevin lost a close colleague yesterday. Their families are in unimaginable pain. The individuals who took their own lives were in immense pain and anguish.

I feel it is important to share this again with particular emphasis on the Su***de and Crisis Lifeline 988.

Please call 988 if you are having thoughts of su***de. Please also reach out to me for support and help with finding resources to help you before you come to a point where you are in a crisis and feeling final about your thoughts.

If you are a friend or relative, please call Kevin or myself. I will not be your “Counselor” because of our relationship but will be the close person wanting to help give you love and support. My cell is 281-913-9330 should you be having suicidal ideation and I will provide support in addition to helping you if you are in a crisis to call 988.

You are not alone.
