Autism
Peter Linden
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Certified Gestalt Therapist
The medical model defines autism by what is supposedly lacking across all domains of existence. We cannot be empathetic, creative, imaginative, curious, aware, loving, connected, or attuned to other people. Our movements, gestures, special interests, need for certainty and concrete communication, and adaptations to overstimulating environments are used to define and control us. Through this paradigm, the autistic person is replaced by a persona seeking integration into a world that demands robotic subservience, only to encounter rejection, scorn, vitriol, and hate.
Autistic suffering is treated as evidence that autism itself requires “fixing.” Sensory overload-induced shutdowns and meltdowns, exhaustion, uncertainty, loneliness, sorrow, emptiness, and the need for support do not exist in isolation. Rather, these experiences are part of existence and cannot be ignored. This is where curiosity comes in.
Curiosity involves being with whatever is emergent, rather than endless intellectual and external analysis. Together, we will explore how you experience your body, sensations, flow, interests, connectedness to the earth, other people, time, and spaces in the present moment. Meltdowns and other adaptations are no longer reduced to “behaviors.” They remain a part of your ongoing humanity. Your story never ends. It is eternal.
Healing does not require taking on personas at the expense of your autistic identity. You are you. And I am I. Expectations are returned to the pit of sorrow and replaced with curiosity and love. Finally, I can just be.
