What Are We Getting Wrong About Autism?

What if the behaviors you’ve been trained to identify as symptoms are actually adaptations?
What if a client’s “disorder” is actually a difference — one that’s been judged, pathologized, and misunderstood for decades?
And what if your autistic client has been waiting their whole life for a clinician who finally gets it?
That’s the focus of this short course with Tasha Oswald, PhD:
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:
- The “double empathy problem” — and how introducing this concept alone can be a profoundly reparative experience for your clients
- Subtle ways ableism shows up in clinical practice — including one common mistake even experienced therapists make
- Why experiences that seem minor to you may be genuinely traumatic for your autistic clients — and how missing this can rupture trust
- Why autistic people are eight times more likely to score in the probable PTSD range
- A side-by-side comparison of how the autistic community describes their own experience versus how the medical model describes it — and why the gap is so significant
- Key signs of autistic burnout — and why it’s so frequently misread as depression, laziness, or lack of motivation
- Hidden mental health costs of masking — including links to depression, anxiety, suicidality, and social isolation
- How to gently open the door to exploring autism with a client who hasn’t been diagnosed

Why the Transcript Is Essential:
- 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.”
