I'm studying to become a counsellor at the moment, only on my level 3. But I joined a study group on facebook and today a lady asked what the best route/therapy type would be most beneficial for autistic people.
Now the thread is full of comments of lots of trainee counsellors who want to work with us but there isn't a great deal of research into therapy types.
My question to you is what is your opinion or experience of therapy? Which ones would you recommend or have helped the most? I could only give them my opinion of my experience but would like to try and offer a bit more advice.
As an autistic person myself I was truly touched by the sheer amount of people who want to understand us and how to help us thrive. I feel it's up to us to help them thrive in their understanding.
You don't need to go into detail if you don't want to, just the type of therapy and how helpful you found it. Hope you can help me to help them.
An extra note. I hope you all managing to find some way to deal with the challenges of lockdown
