Does your autistic child struggle to leave the house? Is it extremely difficult to get them to stop doing one thing in order to start to do another?
Many autistic children find transitions hard - which means that their parents find them hard too. They refuse, they have meltdowns, they simply don't seem to have heard you at all. Life can feel like walking on eggshells. There are pitfalls where ever you look.
For transitions are everywhere. Each time we stop doing something and start doing something else. Each time a new person arrives or departs. Each time we go from home to school, or to visit a relative.
How can you help your autistic child with transitions? Come to the webinar to gain a new understanding of why transitions are so hard, what makes it worse - and how to help.
This webinar will be recorded. Please choose that option at check out if you wish to watch a recording.

Participants from previous webinars said:
"Naomi's insight into children needs to be shared far and wide.That she can not only help children and families but also break down the information into easily digested bitesize nuggets illustrates her phenomenal level of understanding and skill."
"This has been the most useful thing I have had since my Son was 4 and he is now 14. Thank you."
"I think it’s probably one of the most interesting, insightful sessions on anxiety in autistic children that I’ve seen. Just the initial explanation of how the anxiety develops was a real eye opener. It really helps me understand my child better."
"It felt hopeful because it pointed to a pathway out of the situation we’re in. Such a relief to have her feelings and my experience of her behaviour validated."
This webinar is not therapy nor a replacement for therapy.
