SUMMARY:Professor Jacqui Rodgers - Advancing understanding\, identification and interventions for mental health conditions experienced by autistic children and adults. Hosted at the University of Reading.
DESCRIPTION:This is a 1 day workshop presented by Professor Jacqui Rodgers that will take place at University of Reading. \nAutism is characterised by lifelong\, persistent difficulties with social communication and social interaction and the presence of restrictive and repetitive behaviours or interests that may include hyper-reactivity or hypo-reactivity to sensory aspects of the environment.  Autistic children and adults are more likely to experience mental conditions than neurotypical people\, particularly anxiety\, self-harm and suicidal thoughts and behaviours. The initial part of the day will focus on increasing participant’s knowledge and understanding of mental health in the context of autism\, using anxiety and suicide as exemplars to consider recent advances in research. In the second half we will consider how to work with autistic people to devise appropriate and valid tools to identify mental health conditions\, to ensure that we avoid diagnostic overshadowing and ask the right questions in the right ways. We will end by exploring some recent therapeutic advances in the treatment of anxiety and suicidality in the context of autism and some evidence based\, practical recommendations for how clinical services can be adapted to meet the needs of autistic people. \n  \nBook Here\nMore Information\n  \nThis workshop will run from 9:30 until 4.30 pm\, with a 45- minute break for lunch\, at a cost of £130. \nSpecial Offer : with every purchase of a face-to-face workshop\, we are offering an online workshop (subject to availability) at a reduced price of £30.  \n\n\n\nGroup bookings of 4 workshops or more will receive a 10% discount (£117.00 per session)\, and 10 workshops or more will receive a 15% discount (£110.50 per session)*. \nUniversity of Reading Students (current and graduate) will receive a 20% discount upon verification of a valid student number.
