01 · What you'll notice
What it keeps track of.
- How transitions went: activity changes, location changes, schedule changes, person handoffs
- What made a transition harder or easier
- Which supports were used (warnings, visual schedules, first/then boards)
02 · Why it helps
Something firmer than a hunch.
Transitions can be a daily flashpoint, and it is easy to read the difficulty as defiance. It usually is not. Tracking how transitions go reframes them as executive shifts with predictability needs.
03 · How it works
Three steps.
- Log a transition and how it went, with the support you tried.
- Capture the type: activity, location, schedule, or person handoff.
- Your report counts how transitions went, and the warnings and supports you used.
04 · The thinking behind it
What it's built on.
Grounded in an executive-function view of transitions: shifting between activities is a cognitive task with predictability needs, not a behavior problem.
Specthrive's trackers are developed with a licensed clinical counselor (LPCC) on our founding team.
