The Story of Action for Asperger’s

ACTION FOR ASPERGER'S is a charity that was set up in October 2008 specifically to support those whose lives are affected by Asperger's Syndrome (autism). Elaine Nicholson MBE, is the founder of Action for Asperger’s and is qualified in counselling, autism/ Asperger’s syndrome and management. Perhaps more importantly though, she has the experience of autism/Asperger’s syndrome affecting several members of her own family.

AfA’s counsellors specialise academically and/or experientially in autism and Asperger counselling. The majority of AfA’s counsellors have familial experience of autism or have autism themselves. AfA’s counselling rooms double-up as sensory spaces; we believe in looking after our clients’ sensory sense of self as well as their emotional self, and in autism, the two are frequently found to entwined.

In these COVID times, we are promoting that which we have always done - “remote” counselling through a medium of the client’s choice (Whats App/Skype/Zoom/Facetime). AfA pioneered online counselling - we reach out to clients, who, due to their inherent autism, have a fear of leaving home, as well as, of course, reaching out to clients from afar - another country perhaps. To book your appointment with an afa counsellor write to info@actionforaspergers.org. Stay safe and take care meanwhile.
