#SelectiveMutism    • 2 Simple Methods (Used By Therapists) To T...  

Hey there! Today, let's talk about two techniques: exposure and desensitization. These are really helpful methods for kids dealing with selective mutism. Remember, it's not just about knowing stuff; we gotta put those strategies into action!

So, desensitization is like getting your child used to being around people and using their voice. We start small, like talking to each other in different places, kind of like flexing that bravery muscle. With exposure, we tackle specific fears step by step. Let's say your child is scared of dogs. We start by looking at pictures, then maybe playing with toy dogs, until they're comfortable enough to be around real dogs.

We also gotta understand that selective mutism isn't just about not talking. It's a social communication thing, so we break it down even further. Maybe we watch videos of your child playing when we're not around, or share those videos with others your child doesn't usually talk to. It's all about gradually facing those fears without pushing too hard.

The key is to keep your child safe and not rush things. We want them to stay in those scary situations until the fear naturally fades away. It's like a rollercoaster: the fear goes up, then it comes back down, but we're taking it one small step at a time.

As your child goes through these steps, they'll start to realize that these situations aren't as scary as they thought. It's all about building confidence and self-esteem. And remember, selective mutism isn't just about talking; there's a lot more to it. So, let's give it a try! Start with something not speech-related and build that brave muscle together.
