Common Struggles with ASD
As a spectrum disorder, the manifestation of ASD varies widely among individuals, leading to a diverse array of strengths and difficulties. Individuals with Autism may face a number of diverse challenges, such as:
- Social interaction and communication difficulties
- Sensory sensitivities leading to overload
- Repetitive behaviours and narrow interests
- Struggles with forming and maintaining relationships
- Challenges in emotional understanding and expression
- Problems with self-regulation
- Difficulty coping with transitions and change
- Struggles in executive functioning and organisation
- Anxiety and mood-related issues.
Our counselling approach addresses these common struggles by providing a safe and understanding space for individuals to explore and manage the unique aspects of their experiences with autism.
