Hello! We are so excited to share an excerpt of our recent presentation (done as part of ASAC's Neuroaffirming Strategies in Action conference: https://www.asacdurham.com/events). Sam is a physicist and Tisha is a SLP, so neither of us are licensed to provide autism diagnoses-- this presentation is based purely out of our personal interest in the topic and working in related fields or research areas.
This presentation overviews how clinicians can set up a more collaborative and neurodiversity-affirming diagnostic process and also introduces different tools that may be useful for individuals who are exploring whether they are autistic.
