2021 Autism Symposium: What's New & What's Next in Treating Clients on the Spectrum

Description

Autism intervention continues to evolve.

We’re seeing a paradigm shift to one that embraces difference, takes the client’s lead, builds on strengths while supporting needs, and appreciates how the body and brain use behaviors to manage surroundings.

But keeping up with emerging evidence-based autism assessments and treatments can be time consuming and overwhelming, leaving you unsure of what steps to take next…

…that’s why we’re inviting you to this one-of-a-kind, interactive, online learning experience!

We’ve gathered the leading voices in the field to breakdown what’s new, what’s working, and what’s just around the corner in autism intervention.

Led by keynote speaker Temple Grandin, PhD, she shares an inspiring insider’s perspective on the importance of looking at autism as Different… Not Less. Together, we’ll explore the extraordinary potential of those on the autism spectrum, along with strategies for celebrating their interests, ideas, and unique individual differences.

During this powerful virtual autism symposium, you’ll have the opportunity to learn from other leading experts including, Dr. Stephen Porges, Leah Kuypers, Dr. Jed Baker, Dr. Jim Ball, and Dr. Carol Westby – to name a few – as they guide you through interventions that leverage relationships, trust, communication, acceptance, self-advocacy, and the neuroception of safety.

From early intervention to transitioning to adulthood, you’ll walk away with dozens of transformational strengths-based interventions, strategies and approaches to support your clients regardless of age or developmental stage!
