Overview
There are a number of different approaches and therapies available for children, young people and adults on the autistic spectrum, and the amount of information available on each one can be daunting for professionals and parents alike. Autism, Educational and Theoretical Approaches offers concise and clear explanations of a variety of proposed interventions and their effectiveness, and helps the reader to decide on the most appropriate treatment for each individual.

She focuses on the following areas including cognitive-behavioral approaches, developing social interaction, alternative communication strategies, developing play, sensory-motor approaches, psychotherapeutic approaches and biochemical approaches.
