"The child becomes exhausted trying to convince clinicians of their perspective, defending against expertise based on preconceived, erroneous, medicalized, or neuronormative ideas" Excellent paper on experience sensitive approaches to autistic healthcare. Very relevant for education too. #EdPsychs

NEW paper an experience sensitive approach This approach can improve the poor experiences of autistic people accessing mental health care, something which is an urgent need given the disproportionately high incidence of mental health difficulties & suicidality. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Thank you, Chris.

Tried to explain the bullying and ostracism to my school psych in middle school, she thought it was easier to just not believe me, and suggest that I was hallucinating being victimized.
