Masterclass Day 2 - Support and Therapy for Autistic Girls and Women

Information will be provided on support and therapy to assist an autistic girl or woman to develop a positive sense of self, enhance strategies for self-advocacy, executive functioning, emotional understanding and regulation, improve friendship and relationship abilities from early childhood to the adult years, and how aspects of autism can contribute to a successful career. Adaptations to conventional therapy will be explained to accommodate the profile of abilities and experiences of autistic girls and women in the treatment of common clinical presentations including anxiety and depression, eating disorders, and gender dysphoria.
