Which Therapies Are Most Important For Young Toddlers?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My daughter has ABA theraphy and nothing else yet. I want her to have speech, occupational and physical but not sure she would be able to handle all of that at once, plus I don't see how there is enough time to fit all of that in daily. I really need help with which is the most important for her young age. Please share your experiences or what has helped your child during toddler years. Thank you.

For my daughter, a balance it's important. We do ABA, OT, MNRI and gymnastics. I'm a speech therapist, so I do do speech throughout the day and also incorporate Montessori inspired activities. She will be starting a two day half day program with a shadow in the Fall. We don't do as many hours of ABA as others, because we want to have room for other types of therapies and activities. My daughter is 3.5 .

Where did the like and hug button go. I agree completely, Kazia. If my son grows up and wants to be called autistic, then great, I will happily call him that. Until then, he will not be defined by a diagnosis. His name is James...that's it. He also struggles with autism.
