Hi Everyone. I am new here so sorry if I have posted this in the wrong area! I have recently had to leave work due to a burnout and I am wondering if anyone could recommend a good Aspergers therapist who is used to working with adults?My main aim is to get back to work elsewhere but hopefully be better equipped.
I am based in Burnley but I am willing to travel a bit further (up to 15 miles or so) if needs be. Thanks in advance!
Hi claret95, welcome to the NAS online community! I am sorry you recently experienced burnout and had to leave work. You may want to use our Autism Services Directory to search for therapist services in your area that cater for autistic people. You can find the Directory here: https://www.autism.org.uk/directory.
You may also like to have a look at the mental health section of our website which has useful links to information and advice about a range of mental health issues: https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/topics/mental-health. The information on this page may be of particular interest: autistic fatigue and burnout https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/topics/mental-health/autistic-fatigue.
Hope these help!
Best wishes,
Anna Mod
