Transforming clinical service delivery through authentic partnerships with Autistic people - WA

Power shift: transforming clinical service delivery through authentic partnerships with Autistic people.
ALL-DAY WORKSHOP
Come and learn how to shape service delivery of CBT for neurodivergent clients.
How can you transform your clinical service delivery based on learnings from partnerships with people with lived experience?
This workshop will focus on how to effectively provide therapy to and collaborate with neurodivergent clients. Participants will develop skills and strategies to enhance clinical practice.
In this workshop, Liz will outline the key principles of participatory approaches to research and practice. She will provide examples of her own work that actively involves Autistic community members in projects related to research and clinical practice, including in the design and development of a new Autism Assessment Service in London. She will discuss lessons learned, including of ways to redress longstanding power imbalances in research and clinical practice – and potentially even the clinical encounter itself.
Lived experience is critical to future clinical research and interventions. This workshop offers a practical view on how to collaborate and how to utilise key strategies and approaches in improving clinical practice.
