Elizabeth is an autistic adult and licensed occupational therapist who specializes in trauma-sensitive practices. Elizabeth is a lifelong learner with an innovative OT practice informed by so many areas of study. Listen in to this episode as we explore:
– Why trauma-sensitive practices are essential for our work with autistic people
– What Trauma Center Trauma Sensitive yoga is, and how Elizabeth uses it her work
– Concrete, easy-to-apply trauma sensitive practices we can all start implementing right away
– How mutual aid and autistic community can (and should!) play into our work with families
– Elizabeth’s simple but profound takeaway for OTs (hint: it’s not that we should be doing more in our sessions)
