ERP Treatment Tips & Tricks For Autistics With OCD
Overview: 37% of Autistics have OCD. Most of us will work with Autistic clients at some point or another. April has worked with this intersection for the last 13 years & found important distinctions to understand, as well as how to successfully adapt ERP tools so they work for neurodivergent minds. This is an Autistic voices-led presentation, the best way to learn about working with Autism, which is just as misunderstood, nuanced & idiosyncratic as OCD. Real case examples will be incorporated. Presenters are all neurodivergent & very passionate about this subject. Let me share it all with you!
Autism 101: An Autistic-Led Cultural Competence Celebration!
Overview: Most of our grad-school knowledge about Autism was developed by Neurotypicals, lacking the involvement of Autistic voices. For many reasons, those voices are finally being heard & it turns out that much of that knowledge is outdated, incorrect or lacks the depth required to work with Autistic individuals who have OCD. To successfully treat OCD in the Autistic population, we need to amplify those voices. This session will cover some basics about Autism & the Autism community as well as doing a reality check on many misperceptions so we can move forward with better understanding & efficacy. Feedback from prior share-outs have referred to this as the best Autism presentation they’ve had. Created & presented by neurodivergent clinicians & advocates.
