How to support a teenager girl coming to terms with her diagnosis

Hi NAS73958,

You might want to have a look at our section here on the NAS site about post diagnostic support for parents and carers - https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/topics/diagnosis/post-diagnosis-support/parents-and-carers

This covers areas like social care, financial support, autism services such as social groups which you can find in the Autism Services Directory here on the site, as well as links to our helplines and family support services, and education courses.

There's also a section on post-diagnostic support for adults, which you may find helpful as well give you say you're recently diagnosed too - https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/topics/diagnosis/post-diagnosis-support/autistic-adults

Hope this is of some help,
