Aspergers Syndrome Therapy Edgbaston Birmingham

Asperger syndrome typically does not experience the same language and cognitive delays or other learning disabilities normally associated with autism.

It is worth remembering however that no two people with Asperger syndrome are alike.

Symptoms during childhood

Symptoms of Asperger syndrome tend to become first apparent when a child starts school and begins to interact with other children.

Children with Asperger syndrome may:

Have trouble detecting social cues and body language
Have difficulty with maintaining conversations and knowing when it is their turn to speak
Appear to lack empathy for other people and their feelings. Some people can appear to be introverted and almost aloof
Dislike changes in routines
Employ a formal style of speaking using complex words or phrases despite not fully understanding their meaning
Be unable to recognise subtle differences in speech tone, pitch, and accent that alter the meaning of others’ speech
Have difficulty when playing games which require the use of imagination
Have limited range of interests which he or she may be very knowledgeable about
Have poor handwriting and late development in motor skills such as catching a ball or using a knife and fork
Have heightened sensitivity and become overstimulated by loud noises, lights, or strong tastes or textures
Just because your child exhibits one or two of these symptoms however does not mean that they have Asperger syndrome.

Diagnosis of Asperger syndrome

Diagnosis of Asperger syndrome can be difficult and requires a combination of the above symptoms and significant trouble with social situations.

If you suspect you child has the condition, the first step is to visit a GP, who will refer your child to a paediatrician or psychologist.
Research has shown that our unconscious mind makes 90% of our decisions and that behaviors are established at a very young age. The unconscious mind’s primary function is to protect us. However, behaviors learned at a young age are not always helpful in dealing with issues that we face as adults. Although our conscious mind knows how to deal with situations rationally, the unconscious mind which is the driving force, can create a raft of limiting and unhelpful behaviors because of early programming.
How do people with Asperger syndrome see the world?

Some people with Asperger syndrome say the world feels overwhelming and this can cause them considerable anxiety.

In particular, understanding and relating to other people, and taking part in everyday family, school, work and social life, can be harder. Other people appear to know, intuitively, how to communicate and interact with each other, yet can also struggle to build rapport with people with Asperger syndrome. People with Asperger syndrome may wonder why they are 'different' and feel their social differences mean people don’t understand them.

Autistic people, including those with Asperger syndrome, often do not 'look' disabled. Some parents of autistic children say that other people simply think their child is naughty, while adults find that they are misunderstood.

Life changes, and so can you!
