Reading the Autism Criteria

Today your hosts psychotherapists Christina Crowe and Katie Richardson, love making invisible things visible. Today we are talking about all things AuDHD, the acronym that is meant to indicate someone who is both Autistic and also has ADHD. 

Katie and I talk about:

1. Ableism, and internalized ableism, 

2. The Squirrel Club in University,

3. Should adults seek a formal Autism diagnosis? 

4. Myriad presentations of AuDHD (ADHD + Autism),

5. The power of validation.
