Dr. Holmes discusses promoting safety and independence for young adults on the autism spectrum.

Brody and Julie are OTRs with Springbrook Behavioral Health. They walk you through the skills needed for young adults on the spectrum to live as independently as possible, whether outside of the home or if they need to remain at home. Helping your young adult achieve autonomy, competence, and relatedness is key to a fulfilling life and mental health!
