On today's episode we are joined by Kristie Patten, Stephen Shore, and Kavitha Murthi. We discuss their research and work in contributing to the soon to be published Occupational Therapy Practice Guidelines for Autistic Individuals across the lifespan. They give recommendations on how to improve the OT process when working with Autistic individuals, conduct inclusive and meaningful research, and discuss the limitations of current research and practice perspectives.
