Abstract

The Award-Winning Building Social Relationships (BSR) Book is Back and Better than Ever!

BSR-3 is a treasure trove of information and resources. The book contains over 40 instructional strategies, and the appendices alone contain over 50 pages of practical materials, including session plans and assessment tools. BSR-3 also includes a revised version of the Autism Social Skills Profile (ASSP-2), a progress monitoring instrument designed to measure social competence in youth with autism. BSR-3 also contains information on the manualized version of the BSR program and the newly developed ASSP-2 scoring guide to assist with implementation, scoring, and interpretation of the instrument

The BSR program was created to address the need for effective social skills programming. The BSR program is a systematic social skills program that addresses both social-cognitive processing and social skill performance. The BSR-3 book provides readers with a conceptual framework that will improve their understanding of social functioning in youth with autism and other social challenges. The book will teach readers how to assess and teach social skills and activate social-cognitive processing in both children and adolescents.

Many parents are tremendously concerned about their child's social functioning and their future quality of life. They see their children struggling to build and maintain social relationships and experiencing peer failure, rejection, and relentless bullying on a regular basis. Most importantly, they see their children dealing with intense social anxiety, depression, and social isolation. Unfortunately, social skill interventions are often designed merely as a reaction to problem behaviors. This often results in parents and practitioners "chasing" problem behaviors while failing to systematically teach social skills. Now, more than ever, our field and, more importantly, our children are in desperate need of effective social skills programing. BSR-3 will guide readers on the path to better social skills programming and improved social outcomes for youth with autism and other social challenges.

Sensory Processing Challenges

Sensory Processing Disorder

Abstract

Imagine having the flu, while lying in a bed of ants, listening to heavy metal at high volume, and trying to do calculus. Now consider living in that body all the time. It becomes easy to understand how kids with difficulties processing and controlling sensory information can become avoidant, anxious, impatient, irritable, or oppositional.

If you have a child who has a sensory regulation issue, you may find yourself confused or frustrated by their behavior. This book will help you understand your child's behavior, as well as the root cause of their emotional outbursts, and provides an arsenal of tools to help your child self-regulate.

This book addresses the often-overlooked connection between sensory sensitivity and emotional and behavioral issues, which can often lead to a diagnosis of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), an anxiety disorder, or a host of other disorders of childhood. You'll gain a better understanding of how your child's sensory sensitivity affects how they feel and act, and also learn powerful sensory regulation skills to help your child manage their emotions and improve relationships with family and friends.

Whether your child has been diagnosed with sensory processing disorder (SPD), ADHD, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), or autism spectrum disorder (ASD), you'll find proven-effective tips and strategies for dealing with the sensory sensitivity that drives your child's emotions and behavior, and discover ways to ease tension in your home caused by your child's disorganization, oppositional behavior, refusal to eat, disruptive behavior, and anxiety.

Parenting can be challenging even when behavior is predictable and age-appropriate, and when a child has a nervous system that is dysregulated, it is even more so. With this book, you will not only learn to understand your child's behaviors, but will also learn sensory regulation skills to help your child - and your family as a whole - find some much-needed balance.
