Dr Clare Holmes

It's great to be supporting #autistic adults again over at clareholmespsychology.com.au. I have immediate availability for #telehealth assessments for any #adults wanting a formal #autism assessment in #Australia.

On Friday I published a blog post about my PhD research exploring how autistic adults use alone-time for their wellbeing. Over 2,000 people have read it already! Thank you so much for your Twitter and Facebook shares and your lovely feedback! 🥰 autismhwb.com/reacting-retre…

Excited to be presenting a webinar today with Dr Sara McLean and Dr @Jaz_MacDonald about supporting neurodivergent children. aifs.gov.au/cfca/webinars/…

Wentworth Miller shared on Instagram his autism diagnosis. "Oh - this isn't something I'd change. No. I get - got - immediately being autistic is central to who I am. To everything I've achieved/articulated."

@AnnMemmott There is also a version for neurotypical folk called the rcads

@AnnMemmott A shout out here to a great resource to help with asking young autistics how they feel they are going. It also has a caregiver version. I’ve had feedback from autistic children that they like it. It’s the ASD-ASC research.ncl.ac.uk/cargo-ne/Scori…

Just finished reading this 👇 amazing paper about how autism researchers (& others) can avoid using ableist language. A MUST read for any autism researcher - new or old! Big thanks to the authors for their important work @KristenBott @drstevenkapp @Noahsasson @BN_Hand

Does anyone have book recommendations about parenting as a dad on the spectrum? Perspectives of managing change in this context would be particularly helpful.
