Recommended Books:
Driven to Distraction by Edward M. Hallowell, M.D., and John J. Ratey, M.D. This book is one I enjoyed so much because it is easy to follow and can be enjoyed by both clients and health care professionals. It is a book that describes ADHD and how it can be experienced by a myriad of different people at different stages of life. It describes the best ways to deal with ADHD and forms a psychoeducational resource I know I will be referring back to within my practice of counselling. What I want to talk about: How Autistic interests shape my life. by Pete Wharmby I couldn't actually put this down and I finished it in 4 days (which is amazing for me). Pete talks about autistic special interests along with the joys and challenges these have brought him. It was wonderful to read what his special interests brought to him in ways of inner peace in a hectic environment and it was a really lovely shout out to those who are fans of Warhammer 40k. 100% recommend! |
