What Works?

There has been a lot of talk in the community about what interventions work, both for children and adults, in managing the effects of ASDs and AD/HD.

I have referred a few of my clients to a great neurofeeback worker, and they have had good results. Has anyone else had any experience here? What was it?

I have TRIED to refer a few clients to CBT -- but have not found any who really understand ASD, and so it hasn't been a good fit. But, I believe that if I found a good practitioner, this could be a useful tool. Anyone have feedback here? Referrals?

I would love to hear other's input here as to what interventions have worked for others...

Hey Diane -- CBT stands for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy -- it's a psychological theory used to develop interventions -- basically, a form of cognitive retraining -- being aware of what is happening in your body and mind before you 'act out' and retraining to be able to choose a different reaction. It works well with anxiety, depression, OCD, and some disruptive manifestations of ASDs.
