Practices for Autistic Girls

“Through this course I want to help you to realise there is nothing wrong with you, to help you to understand that the challenges you may be facing are quite normal for autistic females.” 

Many autistic females are not diagnosed until later in life, for Kanan it was in her late 40’s at the time her son was diagnosed. Autistic females can be very good at masking and hiding the challenges they face.
In this course you’ll get to understand the role your home and work environment play in how you feel and learn the importance of having a support network. You’ll learn what it means to be an autistic female, some of the common challenges and struggles faced, what you’re feeling and why - the basis of which is knowing yourself better. With this knowledge you’ll experience life with less anxiety and become more confident.
