À propos de cet audio

 Welcome to the Autism Survival Guide—a podcast for parent carers and anyone else with an interest in navigating the world of autism. This show offers guidance and support for those looking after someone on the autistic spectrum, addressing the questions and challenges that often leave people feeling confused, lost, or isolated. From the early concerns about a child’s development to seeking and receiving a diagnosis, managing relationships, and helping an autistic child reach their potential, this podcast provides reliable, compassionate answers. Each episode builds a guide for listeners to refer back to, fostering a sense of community with others who truly “get it.” I'm your host, Dr Anita Rakhit, a GP with over 25 years of experience and a mother to an autistic teenager diagnosed over a decade ago. I’ll be sharing insights from both my professional and personal experiences, along with trusted guest experts in relevant fields. Together, we'll work to find solutions and help you navigate the journey ahead. New episodes will be released weekly on all major podcast platforms. Please email your questions or comments to theautismsurvivalguide@gmail.com, and we’ll address them in upcoming episodes, always keeping your identity confidential.Copyright 2025 Dr Anita Rakhit Relations Éducation des enfants
