Positive Behaviour Support

Positive Behaviour Support aims to improve quality of life by decreasing behaviours of concern, teaching new skills, and creating environments that people can engage in activities that bring them joy. 

Psychological Therapy

Autistic individuals of all ages can benefit from psychological therapy, with skill development and support in a range of areas such as emotional regulation, social and emotional wellbeing, stress and anxiety and so much more. 

Psychological Assessment

As an individual navigates different stages of their life, they may experience emotional and psychological challenges associated with these transitions. Psychological assessments provide valuable information about their skills, strengths, and areas for development.

The Autism SA Social Work team delivers unbiased and person-centred support to assist individuals and families in managing complexities in their environment, and supports autistic individuals to meet their goals. 

Counselling 

Counselling can help autistic individuals to gain new personal insight and understanding, bring relief from many different issues by providing an opportunity to express thoughts and feelings, and teach new ways of solving problems.
