The Aspie Advantage: Goal Setting Tools for Parents and Caregivers
"Individuals with Asperger's syndrome often possess a range of unique strengths that can be harnessed effectively in various contexts, particularly when it comes to goal-setting. These strengths can serve as a solid foundation for personal development and achievement. Understanding and recognizing these attributes is essential for parents, caregivers, and teachers who aim to support individuals with Asperger’s in reaching their full potential. One of the most notable strengths often found in individuals with Asperger's is their ability to focus intensely on topics of interest. This hyper-focus can lead to exceptional skill development and knowledge in specific areas. Whether it’s a passion for computers, art, or a particular scientific field, this intense concentration allows individuals to delve deeply into their interests, often resulting in remarkable expertise.

Sensory Sensitivity Unleashed
This is the 3rd book in a line I have begun writing to help those who don't already understand Autism. I am very passionate about these topics because I too am on the spectrum and have spent the last 15 years of my life dedicated to working in mental health. For most of my life I just felt like I was different, weird and sometimes unwanted. I didn't understand what was keeping me in misery until I learned about Neurodiversity and how it is simply a 'Different-ability' and not about the stigma of a 'Dis-ability'. I believe the rest of the world would benefit from this understanding, hence the books. These titles are meant for Parents, Teachers, Doctors, Nurses etc. who want to understand autism and how to better work with those on the spectrum.
