Welcome to Aspect
A more relaxed clinical experience.
​
Welcome to Aspect Autism Consultancy, a highly specialist multi-disciplinary service for people on the Autism Spectrum
We believe there are no borders to a strength-based approach to Autism Spectrum and to promoting neurodiversity.
We believe that the world is not particularly 'autism friendly' but in recent years there has been many changes in raising awareness within schools, in public places, in the work place and indeed amongst health professionals. At Aspect we believe that one person at a time, we can continue to raise awareness of all autistic presentations and break down stigma of what we think we know already.

What is Autism?
The word Autism is used to describe a number of presentations such Aspergers, Autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) and pathological demand avoidance (PDA). The word 'spectrum' describes the range of difficulties that people on the autism spectrum may experience and the degree to which they may be affected. Some people may be able to live relatively normal lives, while others may have accompanying learning challenges and require continued specialist support.
​
The main areas of difficulty are in social communication and interaction, with associated restricted or repetitive behaviours and interests.
