I'm here to help you navigate your augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) journey.

If you’re not interested, it’s not happening. Enough said.

When you work with complex communicators, grief is a reality you face everyday. There’s no judgement of grief, it just is, and it’s valid. But the hard part is seeing grief that holds back from living, loving, and communicating.

Grief that limits living.

Grief that limits being.

And yes, grief that limits loving.

The hard part is when grief limits accepting, from those closest to the AAC user.

This type of grief sometimes limits the AAC user from communicating and having voice.

Making way for something other than grief doesn’t mean grief has to go away. It just opens the door to some of the most wonderful things you may have been pushing away.

Hard stop right there

I used to worry that parents would think I was just playing with their child, and then I heard a parent say it. But I’m not the person I used to be. If you wonder if our sessions are “just playing,” I’ll tell you all the things we’re working on. Play is magical, so let’s keep playing.

One of the tricky aspects of AAC implementation is the automatic push for the communicator to use their device. In that process, valuable communication is often treated less important than using the device. Don’t fall for that. Use a total communication approach, and accept all forms of communication. Don’t mistakenly teach your communicator that using their device is more valuable than gestures, signs, and facial expressions. What’s easiest for us, isn’t always what’s meaningful to our communicator.

Happy AAC Awareness Month 💓 What are you looking to gain or learn this month (other than app discounts 😉)?

CVI Awareness Month is coming to an end, but I don’t want this to be the end. I’m hopeful I raised some awareness this month but worried I did not do the CVI community justice. If you’re an AAC SLP or SLP that works with AAC users, I hope this can be more of a beginning for us to learn, grow, and improve our knowledge. If you’re a parent of a child with a suspected CVI, I hope you feel more comfortable knowing there are resources to help you. Did you learn at least one new CVI related concept this month? Share below.

Two of the most underrated factors I see when it comes to AAC success: using a keyguard and incorporating the AAC Prompt Hierarchy. For whatever reason, modeling without expectations has taken the spotlight. But modeling without expectations alone isn’t setting you up for AAC success. Set yourself up for success by incorporating these two strategies. What are some things you would like to learn more about with the AAC Prompt Hierarchy and keyguards? Pictured here is keyguards from PRC-Saltillo NovaChat10
