Description

Intervention approaches for co-occurring impairments in:

Social abilities
Communication
Sensory
Anxiety/Rigidity
Depression
Meltdowns
ADHD
OCD
Antipsychotic medicines
Non-compliance

This intensive course will teach you how to assess behaviors and actions, establish consequences for behaviors, and teach new skills to children, adolescents, and young adults with high-functioning autism (HFA). Take away practical intervention skills for social success, behavior modifications, and conquering difficult co-occurring behaviors that lead to adult success. The following difficult co-occurring concerns must be addressed:

Social abilities
Communication
Sensory
Anxiety/Rigidity
Depression
Meltdowns
ADHD
OCD
Antipsychotic medicines
Non-compliance

Learn about typical psychotropic drugs, including both the beneficial effects and possibly troublesome side effects that these people are administered. We’ll talk about HFA as well as the new DSM-5® diagnosis of Social-Pragmatic Communication Disorder. You will be given the skills you need to foster effective cooperation among physicians, educators, and parents. You will leave this session with the confidence to recognize acts that pose barriers to change, employ more successful consequences for behaviors, and teach new skills to children, adolescents, and young adults with HFA through case studies, video clips, and class participation. Don’t merely manage these people; give interventions that will lead to successful adult independence!
