I will work alongside you to identify the goals you want to achieve and develop a plan to help you reach them. This plan can take the form of a SMART goal or a more in\u2011depth PATH or MAP plan, depending on what best suits your needs.<\/span><\/p>\n Together, we can create both short\u2011term and long\u2011term goals and work towards them at the same time, ensuring steady progress while keeping your bigger vision in mind.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ background_color=”#cbd0d6″ use_background_color_gradient=”on” background_color_gradient_stops=”#ffd088 0%|#ffbe6b 70%” background_color_gradient_start=”#ffd088″ background_color_gradient_end=”#ffbe6b” background_color_gradient_end_position=”70%” custom_padding=”70px|40px|150px|40px” custom_padding_tablet=”20px||60px|” custom_padding_phone=”60px||60px||true” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” padding_phone=”60px||60px||true” padding_tablet=”20px||60px|” padding_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_blurb title=”Socialisation” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||divi||400″ icon_color=”#345168″ image_icon_width=”32px” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ header_level=”h3″ header_font=”Lato|700|||||||” header_text_color=”#000000″ header_line_height=”1.5em” body_font=”Lato||||||||” body_font_size=”18px” body_line_height=”1.8em” text_orientation=”center” background_layout=”dark” max_width=”340px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||30px|” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”bottom” animation_delay=”100ms” animation_intensity_slide=”5%” icon_font_size=”32px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Individuals on the autism spectrum often find social situations challenging. The world is largely designed with neurotypical expectations in mind, which can make social environments overwhelming. Noise, unpredictability, and unclear social rules can leave someone unsure of how to act or what to say.<\/span><\/p>\n Together, we can explore strategies and tools that support navigating social situations more comfortably. This may include preparing for social interactions, using sensory supports, building communication skills, and developing personalised coping techniques.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ background_color=”#d0d6db” use_background_color_gradient=”on” background_color_gradient_stops=”#ffd088 0%|#ffc882 70%” background_color_gradient_start=”#ffd088″ background_color_gradient_end=”#ffc882″ background_color_gradient_end_position=”70%” custom_padding=”60px|40px|150px|40px” custom_padding_tablet=”60px|||” custom_padding_phone=”60px||60px||true” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” padding_phone=”60px||60px||true” padding_tablet=”60px|||” padding_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_blurb title=”Emotional Regulation” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||divi||400″ icon_color=”#345168″ image_icon_width=”32px” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ header_level=”h3″ header_font=”Lato|700|||||||” header_text_color=”#000000″ header_line_height=”1.5em” body_font=”Lato||||||||” body_font_size=”18px” body_line_height=”1.8em” text_orientation=”center” background_layout=”dark” max_width=”340px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||30px|” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”bottom” animation_delay=”200ms” animation_intensity_slide=”5%” icon_font_size=”32px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Often those living with autism struggle to identify and express what they are feeling or are not aware that they are becoming overwhelmed until it boils over.<\/span><\/p>\n Emotional regulation is focused on connecting with what you are feeling and the physical cues i.e. tight jaw or tension in your shoulders.
