Some very helpful tips to learn and know.

Inclusion starts with every one of us and that goes for learning different ways to communicate to others so they not only feel included; but also so they belong.

✨ Supporting others starts with supporting yourself. You can’t pour from an empty cup — rest, reset, and refuel so you can keep making a difference. 💧

Visual schedules are a simple but powerful tool for building structure, predictability, and independence; especially for neurodivergent adults. They use images, symbols, or written prompts to outline daily activities or steps in a task, making routines easier to follow and less overwhelming.

Whether it’s planning a morning routine, managing work tasks, or remembering appointments, visual schedules help reduce anxiety around what’s coming next. They also promote self-management by allowing individuals to see their progress throughout the day.

The key is consistency and personalisation: use visuals that make sense to the person using them, and adjust as routines evolve.

Visual prompts also reduce demand - so if you have someone displaying PDA traits, or unregulated within their environment - visual prompts are subtle and give less demand on an individuals auditory processing and defence mechanisms. They are a very handy tool to use - not just for communication, but in aiding executive functioning and limiting overwhelm.

💡Empowerment starts with choice. Involve your loved one in planning, goal-setting, and decision making.

The freedom of choice not only helps create independence; but it is so beneficial to self esteem, mental health and empowerment. ✨

How powerful is this!?

We love our labels. My client. My service user. My participant. Each one draws a line, you there, me here. Each word creates distance, a buffer of professionalism. Every word starts with my. Ownership. Possession. Subtle, but real and dangerous. Not long ago, and still in some places today, people have been held captive, their lives controlled by the professionals meant to support them. How many have lived years under someone else’s rules, routines, and definitions of them?

The people we support aren’t ours. They belong to themselves. Forget that, and we stop supporting and start managing. Use people's names whenever you can. When that’s not possible, use language that is person-centered and respectful. For example, the person I support, the person I work for, the people I assist. Words matter.
