DVD
In this DVD, Danny and Hayden, both diagnosed with Asperger’s, show you how to identify “problem” behaviours in people with Asperger’s/Autism and then look deeper to find the root cause. They’ll specifically cover the three most common behaviour issues: Anger, Anxiety and Avoidance.
The aim of this book is to assist you to understand why difficult behaviour can occur in people with Autism and other related disabilities.
Once we understand what is going wrong when a situation is challenging or difficult, we are in a position to do something about it. This book will provide the reader with both the tools and strategies to change the course of many problem behaviours. In doing so, we will assist you to look at the person in the context of their skills, their needs and their day to day life.
