This is Not Another Social Curriculum
Here’s what we know: authentic social communication is too complex to be made into a curriculum. But here’s what we also know: you want to support your Autistic clients’ well being, and that includes proactively addressing their social needs and thoughtfully responding to difficult social communication situations as they arise in your sessions and in your Autistic clients’ life.
And since you’re here, we also know you want to move beyond the models of teaching neurotypical social skills to your Autistic clients, because you care about their authentic well-being, social participation, and mental health.

Let’s UNMASC is Something Totally Different
In our newest CE course, Let’s UNMASC, Autistic SLPs Rachel Dorsey and V. Tisi model supporting Autistic social communication in a way honors the complex internal needs of Autistics, given the possibility of trauma, demand avoidance, interoceptive difficulties, and alexithymia.
Rachel and V. will bring you inside of their clinical reasoning process on four true-to-life case studies.
