2 nights March 10 and 17
Scientific and clinical research in autism spectrum disorders is looking more and more at the aspect of the anxiety related to autism. Individuals with ASD are more vulnerable to daily stressors. If we consider anxiety as an important factor related to the ASD, our interpretation of the behaviors and our intervention will thus be modified. The goal of this workshop is help participants understand what anxiety is and how it affects the individual with ASD, and to present strategies to help them, support them and cope with their anxiety.
