Everyone looks different in sessions.

Some need more movement, some need more support, some can jump ahead faster.

There’s no one pace or path.

There isn’t just one board.

We move from 3 boards → 26 board → keyboard over time.

It’s always based on what the individual can handle while staying regulated.

Posture matters more than people think.

If the body isn’t supported, it’s a lot harder to get accurate pointing.

A lot of what we do is setting up the body so communication can actually happen.

What is S2C?

It’s a way for individuals to communicate by pointing to letters.

A lot of my clients understand more than they can show. We work on the motor side, regulation, and building up to more independent communication.
