Название: Worn Like a Badge: One Family`s Heartfelt, Humorous, and Sometimes Harsh Account of Life with Twin Daughters with Autism ISBN: 1644240130 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781644240137 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 14670.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Worn Like a Badge is the best way to describe my ownership of my daughters' diagnosis with autism. It illustrates my desperate need to embrace and accept this truth, which hopefully would prepare me for the battle ahead. Keeping this a secret, pretending this was not as bad as it was, was not an option for the girls or for me. There was no time for fear or shame. I needed to be free from the weight of this disease in order to attack it with all my will. I wish I had this book when the girls were diagnosed. It may have hastened my transformation from victim to victor. It is a must read for anyone who has or is caring for a child with a disability. I hope that it proves as helpful to the reader as it has been to the writer.

For more than eight years, author Dr. David A. Bishop and his family struggled to get answers for their daughter, Elizabeth, who was diagnosed with autism at only a year and a half old.
Autism is a condition approaching epidemic proportions. It has become so pervasive most public schools today have entire classrooms dedicated to teaching autistic children. Despite this prevalence, support, education, health care, and legal support have lagged. Autism is poorly understood by most people, yet just about everyone knows of a family or child afflicted with it.
In Elizabeth's Song, Bishop narrates their saga of love, tears, and hope, sharing the lessons they learned about handling common issues, such as health care, insurance, and educational needs. A how-to guide to also dealing with the emotional aspects of autism, it provides support, strength, and hope in the form of pertinent scripture and testimony of the endless blessing of God's love.

Описание: The diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has evolved greatly since Asperger's day. And as our clinical understanding of this spectrum of disorders has grown, so has recognition of the connections between anxiety disorders and ASD—a welcome development, but also a source of confusion for many in the field. The Handbook of Autism and Anxiety brings together leading experts to explain this comorbidity, the diagnostic similarities and differences between the two disorders and the extent to which treatment for each can be coordinated for optimum results. Focusing on repetitive behaviors, social difficulties and fears as core components of anxiety disorders as well as ASD, contributors discuss specific symptoms in depth to aid in diagnosis. Assessment and treatment issues relevant to the autism-anxiety connection are considered in clinical and school contexts. And an especially timely conclusion details how key changes in the DSM-5 affect the diagnosis and conceptualization of each disorder. Key topics addressed in the Handbook include: * Phenotypic variability in ASD: clinical considerations. * Etiologic factors and transdiagnostic processes. * Social worries and difficulties: autism and/or social anxiety disorder? * Implementing group CBT interventions for youth with ASD and anxiety in clinical practice. * Autism and anxiety in school settings. * DSM-5 and autism spectrum disorder. The Handbook of Autism and Anxiety is an essential resource for researchers, clinicians/professionals and graduate students in child and school psychology, psychiatry, social work, education, clinical counseling and behavioral therapy.
