Understanding Autism & ADHD
What is Autism?
Autistic people may act in a different way from other people
Autistic people may:
- find it hard to communicate and interact with other people
- find it hard to understand how other people think or feel
- find things like bright lights or loud noises overwhelming, stressful, or uncomfortable
- get anxious or upset about unfamiliar situations and social events
- take longer to understand information
- do or think the same things over and over
At the Learning specialists, we look at how we can support students with Autism.
We check their Primitive Retained Reflexes, Auditory Processing, and Vision Perception skills.
We then work with them taking into consideration the unique way each Autistic child’s sensory processes and we apply the therapy in a bespoke manner.
Strategies for home and school are also often offered to support the teachers and parents. Most importantly we aim to support the child to navigate more efficiently with less stress and anxiety.
