What to Expect: The Step-by-Step Process
The Critical Role of the CRP
The Communication Regulation Partner (CRP) is essential. We provide:
- ✓Rhythmic Prompts: To initiate and maintain continuous purposeful motor movement.
- ✓Regulation Support: Helping to manage the sensory-motor dysregulation that often accompanies apraxia.
- ✓Emotional Safety: Creating a calm space where competence is presumed entirely.
We Will Coach You to be the CRP
The ultimate goal of S2C is for families to become the primary CRPs. I will coach you through the methodology so you can confidently bring communication into the home environment.
Helpful Hints for Success
- • Stay Age-Appropriate: Always use age-appropriate language and topics.
- • Consistency is Key: Regular, short practices build myelination faster.
- • Patience Over Speed: Accuracy and calm rhythm matter more than rushing.
