Product Description

There has been a recent increase in awareness of the need for timely and appropriate diagnosis of Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASD) in girls and young women. Without such a diagnosis and the relevant support systems being put in place, young women are at high risk of developing mental health difficulties such as anxiety, depression, self-harm and eating disorders. \n \nThe 30-session programme is in three sections: Me & My Mental Health; Relationships & Communication Skills; My Toolkit for Wellbeing & Future Health and aims to ensure that girls can and do develop good mental health, including appropriate levels of autonomy, emotional resilience and open communication. \n \nCare has been taken to ensure that the activities are ASD friendly through the use of explicit aims, reinforcement, clear language, concrete examples, role play, structure and routine, and a focus on self-awareness. This resource also includes a comprehensive PowerPoint Training Session for staff and carers. \n \nThe activities will: \n

Promote personal and social skills development
Develop self-esteem and self-awareness
Empower the exploration of the many aspects of sexuality and healthy personal relationships
Encourage personal responsibility for keeping both mind and body safe and healthy
Enable evaluation and confidential access to local and national sources of information, support and advice

\nThe sessions address contemporary issues that are relevant to young people, including: \n

Consent, safety & the law in relationships
Body image & obesity
Self-respect &aspiration
Stress & anxiety
Influence of the media
Self-harming behaviours
Using CBT & Mindfulness
The range of sexual attitudes, relationships & behaviours in society
