Autism, Identity and Me: A Professional and Parent Guide to Support a Positive Understanding of Autistic Identity

Autism, Identity and Me

Having a positive understanding of yourself is empowering and boosts wellbeing. The young people’s workbook is written with the young people at the forefront, so it is autism-friendly and has a positive focus on difference. When a young person receives an autism diagnosis, many parents and professionals do not know how to talk to them about this, and this book pairing gives them the tools and confidence to do that. There isn’t currently a book on the market that enables a lead adult to feel skilled enough to have these conversations with a young person. Rebecca Duffus has years of experience using this format with young people, with positive outcomes, as well as 14 years of experience of working with young people, families and education settings.
