Hello
My son who is nearly 8 has just been diagnosed with Autism. He can struggle to cope with his emotions and will have outbursts of anger, when he'll throw items in the house, hit me or my husband and scream. His main issues are sensory related. I'm just wondering if anyone else has children who have these outbursts and whether they have tried strategies to help? The psychologist who assessed my son recommended Sensi therapy but our local centre can't fit him in at the moment.
Many thanks.
Rebecca
Have you tried looking into what Sensi therapy entails and perhaps making a homebrew version? That's what I've always found helpful when on waiting lists: find resources to DIY it in the mean time, and consult folks who are on the actual courses via support groups online.
