Create Real Change for Autistic People
A Framework for Overcoming Obstacles to Success in All Environments
The Need for the Ziggurat Model
It’s common to wonder Will my child ever have friends? Will he ever be happy? What will happen to her after we’re gone? When will the next meltdown come?
Autism can be stressful for parents, teachers, and for the child or adult who’s living on the spectrum—who may regularly feel misunderstood, left out, or in a continual state of crisis.
But there is hope. You have tools available to you to reduce anxiety and stress, which can lead to less depression and fewer meltdowns and shutdowns. That’s the power of the Ziggurat Model.
