Synopsis

It is not easy for any of us to understand that others may experience the world very differently to how we do; it requires a shift of mindset from ‘how we think’ to ‘how another person feels’.

Autism – Respecting Difference highlights the difficulties that autistic people may have in processing the sensory information they receive, and how this can affect their responses and behaviour. Expert practitioner Phoebe Caldwell explores how over- and under-sensitivities to incoming signals can overload the autistic brain, triggering anxiety and pain, and how, when we interact with autistic individuals, we can help to reduce sensory overload while at the same time establishing emotional engagement.

Providing an inside view of how it might feel to be autistic, and featuring visceral illustrations by renowned artist Jodie Zutt, Autism – Respecting Difference takes us on a journey into ‘the brainworld of autism’ in order to better understand and support those who experience the world through the lens of neurodiversity.
