Hollie A. Brooks, LMHC- Telehealth New York State
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disorder. It affects a person's behavior, and often times makes communication and social interactions challenging.
ASD can range from mild to severe. The type of symptoms and challenges a person has, and the level of challenge they pose, is different for each individual person.
Some adults with ASD may not be able to function without a lot of help from parents or caregivers. Others may learn social and verbal skills and be able to care for themselves.
Most people who have ASD will always have some trouble when they communicate or interact with others.
Treatment for ASD has helped many people to lead the fullest and most productive life possible. I have worked with many people on the Spectrum, and assisted them in learning the practical, everyday skills needed to function and meet the demands of one's environment. These skills empower someone with ASD to effectively and independently take care of themself and to interact with other people in a meaningful way.
