Synopsis

The landscape of autism assessment and treatment has evolved dramatically, shaped by advances in research and a growing recognition of neurodiversity across healthcare, educational, and social systems. Clinicians today face both new opportunities and new complexities as they navigate earlier identification and a broadening range of evidence-based and individualized interventions. It is essential to examine these developments through a practical, practitioner-focused lens, highlighting innovative approaches that are redefining best practices in autism care. Clinical Perspectives on Recent Trends in Autism Assessment, Diagnosis, and Treatment examines the growing complexity surrounding autism identification, exploring how expanding diagnostic criteria, social media influence, and inconsistent clinical practices have shaped public understanding. Drawing upon clinical expertise and research, it clarifies what defines autism, outlines reliable diagnostic markers, and addresses the challenges faced by professionals navigating an increasingly confusing diagnostic landscape. Covering topics such as autism, medical diagnosis, and clinical treatment, this book is an excellent resource for psychologists, medical professionals, clinicians, mental health professionals, academicians, and graduate students.
