Question for the NAS (Campaigns Department?)

IntenseWorld

Bearing in mind the thousands of undiagnosed females out there, and that there are many children seeing school counsellors for anxiety and depression and school problems, ought there not to be a drive to get counsellors training in recognising autistic traits in girls (especially) suffering mental health problems, so that they can be identified and assessed?

  • Does anyone at the NAS actually read anything on the community.

    By far the most important information about people on the spectrum comes from this area of the website, yet it seems the NAS (and autism professionals) ignore it.

    WHY?

    This is really important. So called professionals need informed training, and the NAS should be lobbying for it.
