Who can benefit from Family Sessions?

At The London Autism Service we recognise that the family of those receiving a diagnosis of autism also need support to understand more about autism.  We would like to offer sessions that allow a family to explore, ask questions and better understand autism.

All families are different and seek additional support at different times:

• Post-diagnosis - What does this mean for our family? How do I tell the wider family or our other children?

• School transitions - Nursery into Reception, Primary into Secondary, Secondary into Post 16 - what information to share and who to share it with

• Psychoeducation - providing information and support about autism and autism strategies

Whether you are worried your child might have autism, have recently received a diagnosis for your child or they were diagnosed a while ago we are here to support you.  The better you understand your child’s needs and the strategies that have been suggested for them the more you will be able to help.
