On-site Workshop : Deaf Autism Deep Dive (Full-Day)
The Deaf Autism Deep Dive is an empathy-led, clinical "build" designed for specialized interdisciplinary teams (Deaf Ed teachers, SLPs, Psychologists, and Audiologists) who manage complex student profiles. This seven-hour session moves beyond basic awareness to untangle the "Knots" created when Language Deprivation Syndrome (LDS) ripples through core Autistic Neurology, ADHD, and Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). Rooted in Conscious Discipline and CPI principles, we focus on building a high-fidelity linguistic environment that honors the student's unique Operating System (OS).
Workshop Overview
This workshop is for teams who need actionable tools to bridge the gap between a student's neurobiological "Hardware" and their communicative "Software." We explore the mechanics of language acquisition—specifically the fidelity of the patterns a student is exposed to—and how to overcome the sensory and motor barriers that traditionally block learning. Every attendee receives a printed Survival Guide to use as a clinical field manual for the day.
Key Learning Modules
Untangling the "Knot" (LDS Ripple Effects): We begin by analyzing how LDS acts as a multiplier for other diagnoses, creating "Information Clutter" that mimics or worsens the rigidity seen in ASD. We address the Attachment Barrier (RAD) by implementing Firewall Commands—teaching staff to honor "NO," "WAIT," and "BREAK" as the first high-fidelity language patterns used to rebuild safety and agency.
Language Acquisition Mechanics & Fidelity: We discuss why an inconsistent or "scrambled" language signal—whether from a poor device map or inconsistent signing—prevents the brain from recognizing patterns. We integrate Gestalt Language Processing (GLP) and NLA frameworks, training staff to recognize Stage 1 "Scripts" as competent linguistic units.
Overcoming Sensory & Motor Barriers: We address why forcing eye contact is a "System Failure" for the Autistic OS and practice the Signing Space Adjustment to ensure the signal is received within the student’s natural "Attention Tunnel." For students with tracking difficulties, we master Tactile Scaffolding and proprioceptive boundaries to "ground" the communication signal.
The Auditory Paradox & Wait-Time Discipline: We expose the Device Illusion, explaining why a "normal" audiogram can still mean a child experiences speech as painful static (CAPD/ANSD). We practice the 10-20 Second Reset, a hands-on drill in mastering "Wait-Time Discipline" to allow the student’s internal "loading bar" to finish processing.
Mastery & Crisis Prevention: We conclude with actionable mastery tools, including Backchaining for Success—ensuring every academic or motor task ends in a neurological "win." We design Visual REST Routines to prevent sensory fatigue and apply the Hierarchy of Needs to assess whether a disconnect is sensory, linguistic, or regulatory before attempting to redirect.
Outcomes & Deliverables
The Survival Guide: A comprehensive printed clinical workbook for every participant.
The "Knot" Analysis Tool: A diagnostic framework to identify the root cause of behaviors (LDS rigidity vs. Autistic neurology).
Custom Communication Scaffolds: Actionable plans for integrating tactile supports and high-fidelity sign patterns into daily routines.
