Did you know much of the research done on autism was done on boys? We are now realizing girls are underdiagnosed, and therefore left not understanding why they have certain skills and struggles that their peers don’t have. If you or your daughter struggles with the following, reach out for a free consultation:
Some missed symptoms:
Relying on other people to guide or speak for them
Having unusual sensitivity to sensory challenges
Having passionate but limited interests
Challenges in making and keeping friends
Having conversations limited to their own topics of interest
Differences with social communication (which increases with age)
Choosing behaviors that seem to be shy, quiet, or unusually passive
Having symptoms of anxiety or another co-occurring mental health condition
Challenges with controlling emotion
