I am available for consultations. I have worked over 12 years now with autistic children and their families. I have 2 children and my youngest is autistic. I can assist and support you in creating an "autistic-friendly" environment in your home to create a calmer place. Any "difficulties" you are dealing with can be assessed and broken down into smaller steps to ensure a positive outcome. Social/emotional communication is an area autistic children can have difficulty in. I am PECS (Picture Exchange Communication System) trained and I use it in an individualised non ABA/PBS way. Having a child centred approach, low arousal approach I look at what works for your child as well as the whole family. I work with you, not directly with your child.
I am also available for presentations, workshops, webinars and conferences, online and in person (Albeit after the pandemic). I have been training and speaking for well over 10 years now and develop, devise and deliver the content. I create bespoke presentations/webinars/workshops based on your need, area of interest. I have also recently completed two facebook live presentations which you can find here- Exposure Anxiety and here - Hyper Empathy and Autism .
if you wish to discuss any speaking engagements- please email me at bobbielman@autismadvocate.co.uk
