Helping Your Autistic Child - A self-help guide for parents (Paperback)

Practical, evidence-based advice for managing distressed behaviours and common situations involving autistic children. Autism spectrum conditions affect about one per cent of the population and whilst they can present very differently in individual cases, there are some common traits and challenges faced by autistic people. This self-help guide focuses on practical, proven techniques to help parents of autistic children with difficult areas commonly experienced with autism. Written by authors with extensive experience in research and working with children with a wide range of neurodevelopmental difficulties, this book uses a strength-based approach, helping children to enhance their strengths, rather than treating problems as impairments needing fixing. This book will help you to: · Support your child through anxiety and social interaction issues · Manage sleep problems and feeding difficulties · Understand sensory responses in autism · Manage distressed behaviour, including self-harm and demand avoidance Helping Your Child is a series for parents and caregivers to support children through developmental difficulties, both psychological and physical. Each guide uses clinically proven techniques. Series editors: Dr Polly Waite and Emeritus Professor Peter Cooper
