The Mental Health and ASD workshop is the third in a series of workshops focusing on understanding and treating mental health issues in ASD.
Dr. Laura Ghali will present on a number of effective interventions for managing mental health and mood disorders in individuals with ASD. Common mental health issues that often co-occur in autism include anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD and eating disorders. Non-pharmacological interventions that have been used in these conditions often have their basis in cognitive behavior therapy and exposure therapy. New alternatives such as mindfulness-based interventions will also be discussed.
