In this third part of an interview series, Donna Henderson, a neuropsychologist and coauthor of an autism guide, shares her expertise on diagnosing autism, handling neuro crashes, and the importance of understanding neurotypes. Henderson discusses the challenges faced by those with invisible illnesses, the significance of re-framing autism behaviors, and offers valuable advice for clinicians, parents, and individuals who suspect they may be autistic. The conversation also touches on the impact of late diagnosis and the importance of being brave and curious as a clinician. Henderson highlights the value of her books and upcoming webinars in providing in-depth knowledge and support for both clinicians and the general public.
