Hello, I have a 15 year old girl who has recently been diagnosed with autism. We are really struggling with friendships for her. She doesn't have any friends in our area or at school and I have run out of ideas in ways to help her with this. She is feeling very isolated and lonely. She is very high functioning and desperately wants to interact with her peers but finds the initial conversation or approaching new people to hard. If anyone has any ideas or ways they have encouraged this that would be great. Thanks in advance.
