Autism and the Power of Music A New Approach to Help Your Child Connect and Communicate

- Barry M. Prizant, CCC-SLP, Brown University and author ofUniquely Human: A Different Way of Seeing Autism
Music therapistYasmine Whiteshares the insights she's developed after decades of working with children, teens and adults on the autism spectrum, both in private practice and as founder of Voices Together, a non-profit music therapy organization that brings her effective techniques to schools across North Carolina. The techniques featured in this book are designed to bring back the connection of joy, motivation, and understanding that everyone needs in order to truly grow.
As any parent of a child with autism understands, sometimes helping your child can feel overwhelmingly hard.Autism and the Power of Musichelps find insightful, practical new ways for you and your child to connect through music, even when it feels difficult. Because music and language may be processed in the same hemisphere of the brain in children on the spectrum, the techniques in this book can help unlock language in an entirely new way. Music becomes a bridge to help children access language in ways other approaches cannot.
As Dr. Terri L. Shelton says in her foreword, "To have an interaction that is affirming, fun, and successful, that builds on the child's strengths and preferences and enhances their interest in engaging and ability to sustain that engagement increases the chance that all other encounters, whether with their friends, their families, or with therapists and teachers, will be successful."
