Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Being Brave

Being Brave is a manualized cognitive-behavioral (CBT) intervention and includes several features that are well-aligned with the needs of autistic children: (1) an intensive parent component; (2) use of visual aids to lay out coping plans and exposure hierarchies, psychoeducation about recognizing fear and anxiety, and scripted language for coping; (3) repeated practice of well-rehearsed coping plans for novel or challenging situations; and (4) exposure exercises for social anxiety and practice of basic social skills. The intervention includes 16 weekly sessions (1 hour each). Delivery of Being Brave is flexible to allow for additional or less practice or exposure opportunities.
