I am an assistant, but the clients families inform me of their children and others being diagnosed or they are worried if they need an assessment. I learned some helpful information to provide an empathetic, not sympathetic perspective. There are many ways to move forward and support the clients through the family.

This topic is very relevant to me as a public school preschool SLP working with ages 3-5 in an "all-preschool" building. Many parents suspect or have recently received an Autism diagnosis for their child and feelings can be raw. Parents are looking for support and someone to listen. Understanding the stages of grief can help providers not take parent reactions personally, and continue to be ready to provide information when the parent is ready.

This is such an important topic and aspect to what we do as providers. I appreciated the thoughts and ideas shared in this training and especially the inclusion of parental quotes to shed insight on the personal and delicate experiences they go through on a daily basis. Remembering to be human and curious in our conversations with families is something I want to put into practice in a more intentional way as a professional.
