This book outlines how therapists and families who have a child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can use an ecological systems approach, which offers a holistic and nuanced model that treats the entire family system rather than just the individual.
Filled with case studies and empirically supported suggestions from clinical practice, this comprehensive book provides an applied therapeutic model that supports the whole family, highlighting how various levels of autism can present differing challenges from a family systems lens. Written using a lifespan developmental framework, chapters begin with early diagnosis and cover essential milestones from childhood to adulthood, addressing issues such as clinical concerns for families, children in school, the role of siblings, the extended family, the assessment process, and the anticipated loss of caregivers. This essential resource aims to not reduce behavioural concerns of autism but rather strengthen the entire family system. Going beyond psychoeducation, this book provides practical and clinical approaches to helping families navigate the unique challenges and family dynamics of autism.
This book is designed to be read by mental health professionals such as social workers, psychologists, psychiatrists, and marriage and family therapists, as well as family members themselves.
