This video engages in prioritising creating a calming environment with soothing music and low lighting to help upset client feel more comfortable. Offered a teething toy for oral stimulation and engaged her with bubbles to promote deep breathing. Once she calmed down, focused on our goals, encouraging her to vocalise and use cues like “more.” Utilised rhythmic clapping to organise her sensory input and facilitated interactive play to redirect her from self-stimulatory behaviours. Offering choices through a tablet and incorporating familiar songs encouraged her participation and eye contact, enhancing our therapeutic interaction.
