Spending the week in fabulous Buenos Aires at the #ACBS World Conference with the only two neurodiversity-focused workshops on the conference agenda: (1) "Helping neurodivergent clients unmask to find self-acceptance, self-compassion, and a cohesive sense of identity" with the incredible Dr Alison Stapleton in which we will share Alison's cutting edge research and explore how the coherence and sense of identity provided by an Autism diagnosis supports unmasking and improved wellbeing. (2) "Understanding the Autistic "Spiky Profile" as a Foundation for Effective and Affirming ACT and CFT" in which I explore how differences in information processing in Autistic people lead to profound differences in life experiences and outcomes - and understanding this is essential for effective therapy.

Autism presents a number of challenges worldwide, complicated by varying cultural and social contexts. In my work with Errepiù R+, I strive to bridge the gap in resources through education and strategic partnerships, aiming to enhance the efficiency of autism treatments. Also, I do my best to raise awareness on Early Diagnosis: Training healthcare providers to recognize early signs can drastically improve life quality for those with ASD. Cultural Awareness: Effective interventions require adaptations to local cultural and societal norms. Technological Integration:?educational technology can and must progress using trans-disciplinal research. The complexity of autism's challenges demands global cooperation. By putting together our efforts, sharing knowledge, and resources, we can foster a more inclusive society where individuals with autism thrive. ?? Join our cause and help make a difference worldwide.
