What happens when autism is named in the family? – Tess Elliott

This three-session CPD course is designed to offer the opportunity to explore the impact on life when a family member identifies/is identified as autistic. We will open a space for dialogue and exploration to consider the unique impact on each of our personal relationships and lives. We will look at issues of grief, loss, and the specter of othering. Using the Relational TA principles and practice I will present a new three-stage developmental model with which to understand autism and its personal meanings:

• a dawning awareness
• hiding and shame
• living in the world

These workshops are open to TA practitioners, either in a personal or closely connected professional capacity. By drawing from personal and clinical examples we will bring life to this model. Please note, that due to popular demand, this is a repeated workshop

Participants are asked to commit to all three sessions and to have their cameras on. These sessions will not be recorded to protect confidentiality.

Places are limited to 9 so early booking is advised.

Cost Members £45.00  – Non-members £90.00.

Ticket sales will end Wednesday 24th April at 12 noon

The Zoom Link will be sent out to all participants the day before the event.
