💬 AAC Without Breaking the Bank!You don’t need to wait for insurance approvals or the new school year to get your child access to communication. ✨If you have a functioning iPad or Android device, internet access, and $9.99/month, you can download a powerful AAC app today — no delays, no red tape.But AAC isn’t always simple or one-size-fits-all.That’s why I strongly recommend working with a licensed speech-language pathologist (SLP) to help you select the right system and set it up for your child’s unique needs.💡 The three most common AAC apps I see in practice:✅ Proloquo2Go✅ TD Snap✅ LAMP Words for Life📲 Communication is a right — let’s get it in your child’s hands now!

🎥✨ What IS neurodiversity-affirming therapy? ✨🎥
It means we see your child as different, not less. 💛
Instead of trying to “fix” behaviors, we focus on understanding them.
We support all forms of communication—words, gestures, AAC, signs, and more.
Your child is already whole. Our job is to support connection, not compliance. 🧠💬
