Individuals with autism have an increased tendency to experience trauma and post-traumatic disorder compared with the general population. Dealing with trauma and its effects can be multi-faceted and devastating for those who have experienced a traumatic event or circumstance. For those with autism, experiences with trauma may be different, and processing and treating trauma may also require an added layer of specialized support. This training will discuss trauma experiences, as well as trauma expressions and responses among individuals with autism. Best practices and implications for practice to support individuals with autism who have experienced trauma and other co-occurring mental health conditions will be discussed.
Following this course, participants will be able to:
Develop an awareness of the prevalence of trauma as experienced by individuals with autism.
Articulate reasons for increased trauma experiences among individuals with autism.
Summarize strategies to support individuals with autism who have experienced trauma.
Describe techniques to support autistic individuals with co-occurring mental health conditions and histories of trauma.
