"Social Skills Training for Autistic Adolescents and Adults" aims to help autistic adolescents and adults who face difficulties in their social interactions. Through a series of enjoyable exercises that combine fun and play, participating individuals can develop and hone many essential social skills.
Considering the challenges autistic people face daily, the book aims to help them practice verbal and non-verbal communication, express and manage their emotions and generally interact with those around them. The book "Social Skills Training for Autistic Adolescents and Adults" is written for therapists or parents who want to work on social skills through several specially designed exercises and interactive activities.
With the book's help, autistic people can slowly develop their body language and facial expressions, learn to recognize and read the corresponding non-verbal signals in others, adapt to the social rules according to each situation, and express their emotions in a verbal and non-verbal way.
The "Social Skills Training for Autistic Adolescents and Adults" textbook is an essential companion for every autistic person that needs to improve their social skills and integrate more easily into society.
