Autism is an extremely complex category which is in constant evolution. Prior understanding that clumped people into “high & low functioning” classifications often resulted in the exclusion of non-speaking people who have the capacity to reprocess traumatic material, reduce distress levels and reframe their self-schemas. Pioneering EMDR clinicians like Sherry Paulson, M.Ed., LCSW have revolutionized the application of EMDR to people across the developmental categories of autism spectrum as well as other complex neuro-developmental categories. You are welcome to join us in elevating the discussion about EMDR to a diverse and well-deserved population.
