Editorial Review

An invaluable resource for therapists, this lucidly written book provides research-based strategies for addressing the core problems of Asperger syndrome (AS) and helping clients manage frequently encountered comorbidities, such as anxiety disorders and depression. Detailed case examples illustrate the complexities of AS and the challenges it presents in daily life, relationships, and the workplace. The author presents a cogent rationale for cognitive-behavioral intervention and offers clear guidelines for conducting assessments and designing and implementing individualized treatment plans. Throughout, the emphasis is on helping people with AS decrease distress while preserving and building on their unique strengths. Special features include a case formulation worksheet and other helpful reproducibles.

Are you an Aspie?

2007-11-02
I find it hard to believe there is only one review for this book! I am an undiagnosed Aspie and I found this book to be beyond belief. OK, I haven't read the whole book and I've started about 5 others on AS. I guess it comes with the territory.

What I am saying is that if you're an Aspie and you want to see how your mind works, in words, right before your eyes then take a look at just the first 50 pages. I've had many professionals (6 - 20) try to help me with very little success, learned of AS about a year ago, and none of them can hold a candle to Valerie. I am awe-struck; she is special!

Calling All Adults on the a/A Spectrum!

2007-10-13
If you are an adult on the autism/Asperger's spectrum, be sure to make this book a very close friend. You will be very glad that you did.

We all know that Asperger's, which is a neurobiological condition that is the spectrum partner to autism does not vanish once a person reaches voting age. We all know that it is long past time good books with a plethora of resources and helpful information for adults on the spectrum hit the shelves.

This power-packed book is replete with information about applying the cognitive approach towards isolating and, hopefully elmininating spectrum behavior. Adults on the a/A spectrum will more than likely recognize themselves and use this book to empower themselves in navigating social settings with neurotypical counterparts.

This book is truly a Godsend and one I highly recommend. Be sure to add Jerry Newport's book, "Your Life is Not a Label" to your collection as well. Any adult on the spectrum will certainly be able to count on these books!
