Thank you so much , We’ve been eagerly awaiting the presentation . It is so helpful to look back on, as this group session was our first one. Everyone was so welcoming and helpful, I was in awe, as was my daughter (newly diagnosed ASD) .
We will no doubt keep going back to this presentation and work our way to a better understanding of Executive Functioning.
We are so glad you found this helpful
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment

Brilliant presentation! I have a special interest in difficulties in executive functioning and cognitive remediation interventions to help promote independence so I found this really interesting.
It’s an interesting premise that individuals with ASD may experience executive functioning difficulties. I have often thought about this as I see similiar experiences and difficulties in patients with frontal lobe head injuries. I’ve used cognitive remediation techniques with individuals with acquired brain injury and individuals with ASD within the NHS (of course techniques need to be tailored to the personal importance of the person). I have to use a lot of these techniques myself (such as making lists etc) as I myself experience significant working memory issues due to DCD and Dyslexia.
Really interesting!!
Thank you for your interesting comments
