What Are We Getting Wrong About Autism?
Imagine a client coming to you after she’s just lost her job (and the truth is, this is becoming a pattern for her).Although your client is highly intelligent, she often challenges rules she doesn’t understand. Or she frequently gets into trouble with co-workers and causes disruption in the workplace.
Getting to work on time is consistently a problem.
Now it may be that your client is actually autistic, or neurodivergent in some other way – but she’s never been diagnosed.
Often these clients start to believe that they are “less than” others. Throughout their lives they’ve experienced disadvantages because the world expects them to act in specific ways – and they just can’t do it.
And the stigma they experience can actually lead to trauma.
So it’s crucial that we become more adept at recognizing neurodivergence and adapt our interventions for those whose brains process the world differently.
That’s why we’re hosting a brand-new live workshop:
— New Short Course —
Neurodiversity-Affirming Care for Autistic Clients
In this workshop, Tasha Oswald, PhD, will redefine autism through the Neurodiversity Model. She’ll walk you through neuroaffirming principles and strategies that can change the way you work with a client who has autism.
You’ll also hear about:
- Autistic trauma: how it develops and why we need to know how to recognize it
- How masking can be used to hide autism (and why that makes it hard to diagnose in some clients)
- How ableism impacts your neurodivergent clients
- Common blind spots for neurotypical therapists
- A neurodiversity-affirming framework you can apply to your practice
- How to adapt your communication style to be better understood by neurodivergent clients
- Why it’s crucial to accept neurodivergent communication styles
- How to help clients identify neuro-friendly care strategies
- How to assess for signs of autism in undiagnosed adults
- Why the words we use to describe autism matter
The live workshop will take place on Wednesday, August 20th from 1pm-4pm ET.
Tasha will take questions from participants of the live workshop periodically throughout.
In addition, by registering for the workshop, you’ll also receive the video recording and transcript (and both are yours to keep forever).

- The transcript makes it easy to go back and double check concepts, citations and names that are mentioned
- We put in a table of contents to make it easy for you to find the exact part of the webinar you need
- Having the concepts already written allows you to take notes on how you’re going to use the ideas rather than transcribing the ideas
- Some people simply learn better by reading than by listening or watching
- You will be able to print out and share techniques presented in the session with your patients
“I really liked being able to follow along with the transcripts as I listened…it was nice not to feel like I had to take notes. I really feel like I remember more when I both hear and see at the same time.”
