‘Accumulating harm and waiting for crisis’: Parents’ perspectives of accessing Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services for their autistic child experiencing mental health difficulties

£0.00

Ashworth, E. et al

Autistic children and young people are more likely to face mental health challenges but often encounter significant barriers when accessing support through Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services. These include diagnostic overshadowing, high assessment thresholds, and limited professional understanding of autism. To improve care, services must adopt a neuroaffirmative approach, with better training, early support, and targeted funding for appropriate adjustments and therapies.
