A strengths-based framework for supporting autistic children and teens

Temple Grandin and psychologist Debra Moore organize their guidance around nine mindsets for working with young people on the autism spectrum. The book combines Grandin’s personal experiences and accounts from families and professionals with Moore’s clinical perspective, then translates those ideas into examples, stories, suggestions, and checklists. Its practical emphasis is on helping the many adults in a child’s support network—from home, school, therapy, and care settings—approach individual needs and abilities through a strengths-based lens. The material is framed as tools for applying these mindsets in everyday interactions and support planning.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Parents and caregivers of autistic children or teens
  • Teachers, special-education staff, and school-based support professionals
  • Mental-health, occupational, physical, and speech therapists working with young people on the spectrum
