Caring for a loved one with a disability is no small feat. I know first-hand just how overwhelming the responsibility can be while trying to manage priorities outside of the home as well. For this reason, I have decided to cover “Autism and Family Quality of Life” for my article review assignment. This article focuses on certain intervention strategies that are crucial to the treatment of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). It purports to explain quality of life as a critical part of early intervention for both children with ASD, and their families.

EMDR is a natural process. The client and the therapist become partners on a journey to help move traumatic and blocked energy. Together they work to transcend and free up the energy, so the client can return to their natural grounded state of being. The goal of this work is to help the client heal, so they can return to their life in peace. There are number of factors to consider when evaluating the appropriateness of EMDR therapy for a client's particular situation and history.
Beck's approach became known for its effective treatment of depression. CBT works by focusing how you think about yourself, the world and other people - how what you do affects your thoughts and feelings. CBT can help you to change how you think (cognitive) and your actions (behaviour), it works in the here and now problems, and not the causes of your distress. CBT has been proven to work well with anxiety, depression, panic, phobias and post traumatic stress. CBT may use group sessions of therapy as can PCT, CBT helps you look at the problem as a whole but break it down into smaller more manageable parts.
