This course provides an overview of autism in relation to girls. It looks at the diagnostic methods and explores why ASD has often been thought of as a more 'male' condition. 

We look at recent developments in our understanding of how autism presents in girls, addressing special interests, behaviour, social skills, masking/camouflaging and mental health. 

Examining how common autism is in girls, why it often goes undiagnosed until later in life, and why other diagnoses may be given instead. We will also explore those areas where autism can pose challenges for girls and the adults around them, and discuss strategies and techniques to support.
