Help for an adult with recent ASD diagnosis

Hi

I am a therapist working with a 22-year-old man who had an ASD and ADHD diagnosis in the last year. I am working to help him understand what these mean for his experience and how he views his difficulties in life, both past and present. We both feel it would be helpful to find him another autistic adult to talk to about his experience, who may be able to normalise his situation and offer advice on how to be more open about the assistance he needs to ask for at work, someone who has similar experiences. My client has a full time job and gets involved in community projects, so may need to talk in the evening.

If there is anyone who may be able to help, we would be very grateful.

Thanks

  • This is such a nice idea, my heart is really warmed by the thought that a therapist would reach out to a community in this way. 

    I won't put myself forward for various reasons, but thank you for posting and trying to help this young man.
