Beschreibung
Looking at the ways autism presents differently in girls than in boys, and the mental health conditions that occur most frequently in girls, this is the essential guide for clinicians and educators on tailoring interventions and support to meet the specific needs of girls and young women with autism. Describing the current assessment process for autism diagnosis, the book explains why girls are under- or mis-diagnosed, and the impact of this on their mental health. It outlines the types of interventions that are particularly helpful for working with girls to reduce anxiety, improve social interaction skills, and manage self-harm. Including illustrative case studies, the book also covers how to manage eating disorders, working with girls with sensory processing difficulties, and offers advice on working with parents and carers.
