Bloom True Therapy is a neurodiversity affirming pediatric occupational therapy practice in Winter Park specializing in play-based, relationship-centered occupational therapy for children who need support with regulation, sensory processing, transitions, motor skills, play skills, and executive functioning.

We use a DIR/Floortime approach where therapy focuses on honoring a child's individual differences to form a meaningful relationship in order to foster trust and safety and build real life skills.

Autism can look many different ways - and when it presents in non-stereotypical ways (which is common in but not exclusive to girls/afab) it’s often missed - leaving people without support, or without the *right* support.

Kids who present with this non-stereotypical profile of Autism are often socially motivated - which leads people to disregard a possible autism diagnosis up front, but autism does not (always) mean socially avoidant.

I also use “Autism in girls” as a shortcut to help undiagnosed girls get more visibility but *MANY* boys and nonbinary people have this presentation- including my own son ❤️

🗺️ 𝗠𝗮𝗽 𝘁𝗼 𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗽𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱-𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘆!

⦿ 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗻 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲:
Set up an environment where a variety of toys, art supplies, and sensory materials are accessible. This encourages children to choose what interests them the
most, further fostering that
sense of autonomy.

⦿ 𝗢𝗯𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻:
Pay close attention to both the themes and scenarios children explore during play. Listen to their conversations, even if they’re talking to themselves or their toys, as this can provide valuable insights into their thoughts and emotions.

⦿ 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗿𝗴𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁:
While it can be tempting to offer suggestions or intervene, practice restraint. Let the child take the lead, and only join the play if they invite you to or if there is an unsafe situation unfolding.

⦿ 𝗔𝘀𝗸 𝗤𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀:
When you do participate, ask open-ended questions that encourage deeper thinking and conversation. This can help children reflect on their play and experiences.

⦿ 𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗖𝗵𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀:
Positive feedback fosters a sense of pride and independence, motivating them to continue exploring and leading in their play and elsewhere.
