Getting a diagnosis for autism helps define the difficulties your child is experiencing, giving greater understanding, support and control.
Autism is a neurodevelopmental lifelong disorder – with several types and varying degrees of difficulties experienced.
The term Autism is an ‘umbrella’ term for conditions such as Asperger’s. Recently the USA have removed Asperger’s Syndrome as a separate diagnosis.
Those with Autism often experience difficulties in certain areas – known as the triad of impairments, which involve social communication, interaction and imagination.
The assessment for Autism needs to be thorough as the diagnosis is a lifelong but many parents (and children) report huge relief once a diagnosis is made.
Certain therapies such as CBT, coaching and Psychology, can be hugely beneficial in helping autistic children better manage their day to day experience.
Many parents choose to have a few sessions with a parenting expert to learn effective ways of managing their child’s difficulties.
