Description

How can support be effectively tailored to autistic children?

We discuss the different types of support that can be tailored to autistic children. A diagnosis can be a key for a parent, unlocking the right support for their child. We discuss interventions such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness, and briefly music, art and occupational therapy.
