Scott specializes in working with autistic clients and their families and partners. His position is that autism is not pathological, and that many or most challenges faced by autistic people are due to the social reactions of others. He can help you reach a better understanding of yourself, your situation, and other people. Scott s approach is customized to your social and emotional needs. He won t devalue or delegitimize you or your diagnosis, because he has one, too. He s experienced various challenges of being on the autism spectrum, and he can help you with yours.
Scott s theoretical perspective draws from rational-emotive behavior therapy REBT , narrative therapy, solution-focused therapy, existential therapy, and psychosocial education.
