ASD
Autism is a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition, in which individuals
experience communication problems, difficulty with social interactions and a tendency to repeat specific patterns of behaviour. They may also have a significantly restricted range of activities and interests. People with autism may also commonly experience difficulties with cognitive and behavioural flexibility, altered sensory feeling, sensory processing difficulties and emotional regulation difficulties. Early diagnosis of autism can make a dramatic difference by enabling the individual to understand how they process their thoughts and cope within their environment and social situations. This can be achieved by learning coping strategies and social skills which can support the individual’s ability to cope with situations
that may be anxiety provoking thus improving life quality and ability to function within a social environment.
