Here Are a Few Things From The Book Autism
Autism is actually a general term that covers a host of different disorders related to impaired brain development. These conditions are often observed in different degrees or types of difficulties (social, verbal, or nonverbal challenges). Previously, these disorders were recognized as respective and separate subtypes. However, the recent DSM-5 diagnostic manual has merged these disorders under the diagnosis of autism.
Though autism has a high degree of variability, this neurodevelopmental disorder generally follows a steady course; however, this course is one that has yet to have a definitive cure. Therefore, it’s important to know how ASD progresses in order to be able to help your child manage the condition effectively.
Though there is no complete cure for ASD, there are different treatment options available in order to help manage and improve the symptoms of the condition.
These include the following types of therapy and services:
Early Intervention Services
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
Developmental, Individual Differences, Relationship-Based Approach (DIR)
Treatment and Education of Autistic and Communication-Handicapped Children (TEACCH)
Occupational Therapy
Sensory Integration Therapy
