Integrative Psychotherapeutic Approaches to Autism Spectrum Conditions ─ Working With Hearts of Glass

Although autism is often treated medically or behaviorally, sufferers are naturally subject to high levels of social and emotional stress. As an integrative psychotherapist, Moat is willing to combine approaches for achieving better psychological health from at least 11 different areas, ranging from neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) to positive life planning. An appendix also briefly looks at historical approaches for the treatment of autism. Annotation c2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
