Social cues aren’t always clear — and that’s okay. 💙

For many autistic individuals, things like tone, sarcasm, or body language can be harder to interpret. A little patience, clarity, and kindness can make a big difference. ✨

💙 Autism can look different for everyone. 💙

From communication and social differences to sensory sensitivities and unique behaviors — every individual experiences the world in their own way.

That’s why awareness matters… but acceptance matters even more. ✨

🐰🌷 Easter Fun at UABL! 🌷🐰

We had the BEST time celebrating Easter with our amazing kiddos this week! 💙

We kicked things off on Thursday with a special visit from Boba the Bunny 🐇 — bringing lots of excitement, smiles, and a little extra HOPPYness to our day!

The fun continued as we gathered together to enjoy a sweet Easter story 📖, got creative decorating our bunny crafts 🎨, and wrapped it all up with an Easter egg hunt filled with fun little surprises! 🥚✨

Moments like these are what make UABL so special — full of joy, connection, and memories we’ll never forget. 🌈

Happy Easter from Unlocking Abilities!! 💙🐰✨

🌟 Continuing our Therapist Spotlight! 🌟

For Laura, the most meaningful part of her role is the relationships she builds with her learners and the growth she gets to witness along the way. From small moments to big milestones, she values every step of the journey.

Even on the more challenging days, Laura approaches each session with patience, care, and a commitment to working through it together — making every bit of progress that much more meaningful.

We’re so grateful for the heart, dedication, and support Laura brings to UABL each day! 💙✨

🎉 Happy Birthday, Ms. Jen!! 🎉

Today we’re celebrating our incredible Speech-Language Pathologist — Ms. Jen! 💙

With over 16 years of experience, Jen brings so much knowledge, passion, and dedication to everything she does. She has made such a meaningful impact on our kiddos and their families by helping them build confidence in their communication and feeding skills.

Jen plays a huge role in what we do at UABL — always ready to collaborate with our therapists, share her expertise, and support learning across our entire team. Her thoughtful, individualized approach and genuine care for each child truly sets her apart.

Outside of UABL, Jen enjoys baking with her kids, spending time outdoors camping and boating, and curling up with a good book and coffee ☕📚

Jen, thank you for the passion, care, and expertise you bring to our team every single day. We are so lucky to have you!

Wishing you a birthday filled with love, laughter, and all the things that make you happiest! 💙🎂✨

World Autism Awareness Day – April 2nd 💙

Today, we recognize and celebrate World Autism Awareness Day — a day dedicated to increasing understanding, promoting acceptance, and celebrating the incredible individuals on the autism spectrum.

At Unlocking Abilities, we are honored to support and walk alongside our learners and their families every single day. We see firsthand the growth, resilience, joy, and unique strengths that make each child so special.

Autism is not one-size-fits-all — it is a spectrum filled with diverse abilities, perspectives, and ways of experiencing the world. Today, and every day, we choose acceptance, inclusion, and celebration of those differences.

Let’s continue to build a world where every individual feels seen, supported, and valued for exactly who they are. 💙✨

This building holds so much potential… 💙

Behind the scenes, we’ve been working on something really special—a brand new space that will allow all of our learners and services to come together under one roof.

More room to grow.
More space to support.
More opportunities to make a difference.

We’re so excited to finally start sharing a glimpse of what’s to come and we can’t wait to show you more… this is just the beginning. Stay tuned!

💙 April is Autism Awareness & Acceptance Month! 💙

At Unlocking Abilities, we celebrate the incredible strengths, talents, and uniqueness of every individual on the autism spectrum. Autism Awareness Month is a time to spread understanding, promote acceptance, and celebrate the diverse ways people experience the world.

Every child learns differently. Every voice matters. Every achievement — big or small — deserves to be celebrated. ✨

Together, we can create a community where individuals with autism feel supported, understood, and empowered to thrive.

Join us this month as we celebrate Autism Awareness through learning, acceptance, and community! 🌈 💙

🌟 Staff Spotlight: Laura 🌟

We’re continuing the celebrations for Laura and are so excited to officially shine the spotlight on her as our next Staff Spotlight! 💙✨ We are beyond happy to have her back from maternity leave — she was truly missed by all of us, especially our kiddos! 💕

Laura brings over 6.5 years of experience working with learners with special needs and in the field of ABA. She earned her Master’s degree in Psychology with a concentration in ABA from Ca****la University and has worked across virtual, in-home, and clinic settings. She is currently preparing to pursue her BCBA certification — and we can’t wait to see all that she continues to accomplish! 💫

Laura’s journey in ABA began after college, starting as an opportunity to learn more about psychology, but quickly turning into a true passion. She originally joined UABL when services were provided in-home and later transitioned to the clinic setting to continue growing and expanding her experience. She was especially inspired by the leadership and dedication she saw, which made a lasting impression and drew her to be part of the team.

What drives Laura each day is knowing the work she does makes a meaningful difference, along with the smiles and laughter shared with her learners. Her goal each session is to support progress while building strong, trusting relationships that make learning both productive and engaging. 🌈

Outside of work, Laura enjoys spending time with her family, listening to true crime podcasts, exploring new kid-friendly places, and hiking. 🎧🌿

Laura is genuine, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable. Her calm presence brings comfort and confidence to our learners and team, and it’s no surprise how much our kiddos adore her. We’re so grateful to have her at UABL! 💙✨
