AutPlay Therapy is a neurodiversity affirming framework for implementing play therapy to address the mental health needs of neurodivergent children, and their families.
During AutPlay, parents/carers are recognised as core change-agents and are included in the play process. Appropriate play therapy modalities are integrated to meet the needs of the clients and their goals.
Play-based therapy can facilitate communication, foster emotional wellness, enhance social relationships and increase personal strengths.
