Autism therapy

Hope

I am looking for therapy that I will be privately funding. I'm wondering if you could recommend any services that offer therapy for autistic adults with OCD on a long term basis, particularly if it's based in South East England. I will be using zoom or another online platform.

  • Hi All, therapy can be in many forms I guess

    .. it doesn't have to be face to face work (on Zoom or in person)

    .. it can also involve self study and gaining a better insight into the challenges us gifted people have compared to NTs

    ..  I'm currently reading 'Asperger Syndrome' byt Tony Attwood - not a recent book but brim full of ideas, observations and empathic recommendations

    .. I'm gaining a lot by matching my experience with the clinical assessments and suggested interventions. 

    I so wish this body of knowledge and professional understanding had been available when I was at school and growing up ..

    Chatting with other gifted people can also be therapy I'd say - so a forum like this is a good thing :-)

    Yes indeed!  I loved Attwood's book
