Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts!
There's a huge amount of very useful information here. I confess I'll have to re-read your post at least a couple more times to internalise all of it but take that as me saying from a first skim there's a lot of valuable stuff here.
I'm not looking into it for myself (at present, who knows about the future) but rather for someone very close to me.
Thanks for your comment. Can you expand a little, please? I will need arguments if I'm to steer this possibility away.
Thanks! Not really helpful, but at least not detrimental?
I'll research psychodinamic as well - thanks for the recommendation.
I've been reading a lot about therapies and autism. I know there is strong indication that ABA, in the extremes, could be regarded as emotional mistreatment for autistic people.
I have been trying to find information about CBT applied to autistic children and adolescents, and have mostly come across neutral or positive articles and opinions. Granted, most of those are in publications that share similar views of ABA.
Is there a general consensus or impression on the use of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in the treatment of social issues (addiction, social isolation, ...) on autistic children and adolescents?
I would appreciate any insight and/or links to articles, opinions, studies, etc.
Thanks!
