How I Went From Nonverbal to Verbal Autism

Intensive interaction is important to learn . Videos free on line

For all parents of nonverbal level 3 autism. I’m a psychologist and I used NeurOptimal on him with attachment therapy and in one week he went from 2 words to sentences now after 30 sessions he is having complex conversations. I have only this one story to tell as I don’t normally work with autism but as a parent it’s worth looking at. I told the mum the beginning I didn’t know if it would help so I’d give her 3 free session. It’s been life changing. Also I stopped all discussions in front of him as if he wasn’t thee or if he was a problem. Thi also had a dramatic affect . The mother has also used diet which ended fits and calmed outbursts. The amazing woman in England who does intensive communication. Entering into their language helped enormously.

I feel like you are telling my story . Only the last part of the story tells us missing. I will do that

Thank you so much William! So helpful and give parents some insight into how we can advance our children’s speech and development ❤

Thank you so much for this educational video

Thank you so much. I have a nonverbal 7 year old who understands so much and used to have about 5 words that weren’t clear, but now only says 1 word ‘mom’ when frustrated. It’s very difficult to find verbal people who were once nonverbal at the typical speaking age to share their stories. I appreciate it so so much. ❤️

At that time ur mom done therapies.. Thank you for sharing

Thank you so much for this video.

How can one think without words? I know animals do, but do nonverbal autistic people understand all that is said to them? How involved are their thoughts?

Wow amazing.

Amen God is good.
My son is 4 years old just been diagnosed with Autism we had to wait on the list for nearly 2 years.
I was suspicious since he was nearly 2 years old. He is non verbal and I am hoping that one day he will be able to speak good thing is since I changed the nursery to a far better school he begun to say mama, daddy, baby, bye bye, let’s go go go go, but,
I am so happy he is super intelligent because I can see his understanding is really good very observant to details.
After seen your video today I got very emotional and believe me or not I am so delighted for your great accomplishment.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I had to slow my sons speech down. He started talking when he was over 3 yrs old.

My boy doesnt read books he refuses to look at them. Doesnt copy and doesnt pay attention unless its on tv so its different for every child. He never liked books his body is very sensory seeking and he needs to regulate it alot .

Always knew non verbals were faking it.

This gives me so much hope for my baby. These are the same things, me and my son father have been doing with my son since he was born. He is 3 and knows his abc and 123 in spanish and in english. He is finally able to say some words.❤❤❤ Thank you so much for this video. It feels good to know I'm doing something right with my baby for his autism

Wow man, you have a great mom!

Great story. Thanks for sharing that william. Your mom is indeed a super hero.

Please kindly reply

At what age you have proper sentencing speech???

I'm so ignorant on autism but lately I really am trying hard to learn more on this topic, so thank you for your video

I doubt you were ever nonverbal. You are just weird

your mum is awesome!

What a blessing to have such a dedicated mother ❤️💕

Thank you so much for your insight. As a speech pathologist that works with Autistic children, it’s great hearing about what worked for you.

Any suggestions about having my son diagnosed?
He’s almost 30, born with Down’s Syndrome, used to LOVE his Sesame Street Search n Learn game, and used to have about 350 signs… before our world turned upside down.

We’re slowly becoming more stable, and I hope to work with him again. He had learned mostly because of Thomas the Train and Curious George - still his favorites. I helped George do what my son needed to do, then he would copy his buddy. His PCP didn’t want to add a label on him, and he was sick so much that I finally home schooled him, so school didn’t give him an autism diagnosis either. A heart surgeon was the first to ask if my son was autistic when he was 12.

BRAVO.❤

Thank you for sharing this! As a father of a "non verbal" autistic 8 yr old son ( with lots of work from him his mom and I and aba and speech therapies and he can say roughly 13-25 words now and continuing to be able to say more. Ive subscribed and shared you channel on our non profit page aatap as well :) thank you for doing this videos and im going to look into the learning curriculum that helped you 😊

棒棒哒妈妈是一位很棒的语言专家❤

I did many of these methods when my son was growing up. He now fully understands about 95% of what is being said. When it comes to speech he knows te words but does not want to use them . He will repeat if i prompt but will not say them on his own unless its something he really really wants. Any suggestions on how to et him to talk over using gestures. Thank you

I hear of people going from non verbal to verbal autistic a lot. But never the other way. Do people go from verbal to non verbal, or verbal to semi verbal? :)

Why are these unbelievably important videos on this specific topic so damn short and vague?!

Thank you sir

This was helpful .Thanks so much

At what age u were non verbal

THANK YOU!!!

Thank you I am going to have my daughter watch this ,, 3 out of her 4 are nonverbal …

My son is non verbal he scripts me, can identify things, he is slowly becoming more communicative but it’s taking time.

Many thanks William for highlighting your personal story and sharing your experiences with us. We need more awareness and thank you for sharing your personal content. Keep up the good work as you continue to spread hope and faith for a lot of families 🙌

This was really helpful, thank you.

Thank you so much for sharing this, Will 🙏❤️

My niece went from non verbal to verbal through speech therapies.

Great ideas

Thank you for sharing your story! Your mom is obviously a Rock Star and so are you!❤

Autism is for nerds. No thanks

What a great mom.Thank you and God Bless you.

This truly works, my was son is 7 now but was non verbal until around 4-5 years old, so i understand

You are a very good man
Thank you 😊

It has. Thank You. God Bless You!

Appreciate your videos. My verbally delayed autistic son is five and while he uses a lot of words and phrases now, it is mostly non functional and there is a lot he can’t express. What I don’t understand with the ABA tactic you mentioned using a favorite food or toy, is what do you do if he can’t say or sign what you want? You just withhold is favorite things? That seems cruel to me and I could never do that.

Great ideas , thank you! My 3 year old daughter is considered non verbal (says about 20 words) I’m going to give this a try with her.
