How it works

   Autism coaching is a fantastic and positive approach to working with Autism.

   It is all about ENABLING and EMPOWERING individuals rather than just managing them.

   I work with the family unit where possible, so that there is a high level of consistency which is vitally important.

   I work with Positive Psychology techniques to promote personal WELL BEING as it is acknowledged that persons with Autism suffer from a natural low state of well being.

   Keeping a positive state of mind leads to a positive outlook and amazing results.

   During the process you learn techniques to help your individual needs,this is like having your own toolkit with different tools for different situations, for example simple breathing exercises to help break the cycle of escalating stress/anxiety.

   I use goal setting strategies so that you can ACHIEVE, promoting a sense of accomplishment and achievement enhancing your well being.

   Alongside all of this, learning about your personal strengths and how to use them and grow them to benefit you in all aspect of daily life.

   For younger families we can work on the best methods to accomplish mastering day to day skills,for example daily timetables appropriate for individuals, and learning about expectations and how to meet them successfully.

 

   Coaching is not a one size fits all thing, so each case is structured to meet the individuals needs.

 

In short Autism Coaching is - 

PERSON CENTRED

GOAL LED
STRENGTH BASED
