Demystifying Autism Spectrum Disorder in the Clinical Setting - 2022 CE
In this session, we will explore Autism Spectrum Disorder, which consists of a wide range of symptoms and can be very challenging for both the client and caregiver. Effective treatment consists of gaining an understanding related to hypothesized causes, becoming familiar with both pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment approaches, and learning how to support the individual that has been diagnosed with the disorder. In addition, caregivers must recognize the need for self-care, reflection, and health. In order to fully support and be an effective member of the treatment team, the caregiver must be able to utilize and employ coping strategies to help deal with stress, anxiety, and perceived failure.
