Join us for an informative webinar led by clinical psychologist and author Dr Ann Ozsivadjian focused on understanding and managing anxiety in autistic children. This session will explore the unique ways anxiety manifests in autistic children, the factors that contribute to heightened stress, and practical strategies to support emotional regulation and well-being.
Designed for parents, caregivers & educators, this webinar will provide evidence-based insights, examples, and tools to create supportive environments. Learn how to recognise signs of anxiety, adapt approaches to meet individual needs in autistic children. Don’t miss this opportunity to deepen your understanding and enhance your ability to support autistic children in managing anxiety effectively.
