WT 376: Understanding Your Autistic Child with Dr. Kristen Hodges
Dr. Hodges joins us today to share wisdom that comes not only from her clinical background in psychology, but also from 3 years of raising her own autistic son. She encourages moms not to fear a diagnosis, and shares how to pursue free early intervention measures and support from your community. You’ll love the wisdom she shares about deescalating situations with your autistic child and the advice she gives on how to discipline in a manner that works with their brain’s wiring instead of fighting against it.
