Why Spectrum Life Strategies?

SSpectrum Life Strategies is an autism consulting practice that empowers children, teens, and adults with high-functioning autism to create more fulfilling lives. Developed by internationally recognized autism specialist and award-winning author Dr. Diane Adreon, Spectrum Life Strategies is a forward-thinking approach to helping children, teens, and adults achieve their potential. It prepares parents, individuals, schools, and organizations to effectively manage and overcome the many challenges that can impede meaningful relationships and consistent achievement.

Based on her successful work with thousands of children and adults and their families for more than 0 years, Dr. Adreon developed Spectrum Life Strategies, which includes a comprehensive range of services designed to effectively address current challenges and nurture strengths, while preparing for the next stage of life.

Autism includes a heterogeneous group of individuals who have a wide range of language abilities and intellectual ability. Many individuals struggle with various aspects of learning. Overall intelligence rarely gives a meaningful picture. Instead, it is often helpful to look at the variability in the person’s skills, as some skills are often better than those of neurotypical individuals. 

Approximately 40% of individuals with autism have average to above average intelligence capabilities, these individuals often face significant hurdles as they navigate the world. Sensory overload, a lack of focus and motivation and difficulties mastering appropriate social communication prevents many people from reaching their potential. The impact on family life, relationships, school and work responsibilities, and the effect on peers and colleagues can be significant. Ongoing challenges can increase anxiety and depression.

Success stories happen, but not overnight. In most cases, achievements in social skills and executive functioning are the result of commitments by parents and individuals to consistent therapeutic and academic intervention strategies. With neuro-affirming supports, acceptance, and compassion, children teens, and adults can achieve fulfillment and enjoyment at school or work and in social and personal relationships. However, finding and managing appropriate education, work and therapeutic strategies and long-term planning can be confusing and frustrating.

Dr. Adreon provides expert knowledge, support and case management for families, individuals, corporations and academic institutions.
