Context Sensitivity in Autism:
For clinicians and everyone else!

 Join me for a webinar on the often-overlooked concept of context insensitivity in autism, inspired by Peter Vermeulen’s influential book, Autism as Context Blindness. I first read this book in 2016, and it had a profound effect on my understanding of autism. Building on Vermeulen’s insights and nearly a decade of my own reflection, I’ll explore how autistic and non-autistic people differ in their use of context—and why this distinction matters for sensory experiences, communication, and social interactions. I’ll share many real-life examples and practical strategies for supporting individuals with low context sensitivity. Whether you’re a clinician, educator, or family member, you’ll gain fresh perspectives and actionable tools to better understand, connect with, and assist autistic people. Don’t miss this opportunity to deepen your perspective on a crucial, but rarely discussed, aspect of autism!
