Infographic titled “Supporting Gestalt Language Processors Through the Lens of Monotropism.”
Five green-grey boxes list supportive, neuroaffirming strategies:
Validate scripting and use as building blocks
Follow interests and join their flow – allow silence and child-led direction
Avoid direct prompting – reduce questions and redirecting
Model language from the child’s perspective (examples: “I love…”, “Let’s try…”, “How about…”)
Respect sensory needs, bodily autonomy, and allow processing time
Decorative pink hearts and infinity symbols appear along the sides. At the bottom, text reads:

Logos for The Speech Den and Autistic Realms – Neurodiversity Affirming appear in the lower corners.
