We’re in the office, on the therapist’s couch today, talking with Disabilities Counselor, Rose Reif.
Among the many therapies for our children, we often forget that counseling benefits the entire family. In today’s conversation with Rose Reif, we will cover a multitude of topics that include self-care, time management and the benefits of online therapy.
In this episode you will discover:
- How to respond when people say mean things to your kid.
- A technique you can use to help manage your time.
- Why it’s important to find a counselor who “gets it.”
- What areas most parents need the most help.
- Why online therapy may be a better fit for people with ASD and their families.
