The methods that can effectively treat children's autism are as follows:
1. Music therapy for autism
Music therapy can be divided into group therapy and individual therapy; The main therapeutic tools are drums and cymbals, so that autistic children can improvise and beat freely to achieve the purpose of self-venting, liberation and self-expression. Music therapy can help autistic people to concentrate, cultivate imagination, stabilize emotions, promote socialization and language interaction, and develop new leisure skills and new interests.
Second, behavioral therapy for autism
Behavioral therapy is the most commonly used and effective method in the education and treatment of autism. It is the application of individual's spontaneous response behavior and so-called operational constraints to improve and remove autistic symptoms and maladjusted behaviors or to form adaptive behaviors and self-care and professional skills in daily life.
3. Sensory integration therapy for autism
Sensory integration disorder is due to brain dysfunction, which can't integrate and respond appropriately to the stimulation of five basic senses, such as vision, hearing, touch, vestibular sensation and kinesthetic sensation of muscles and joints. The purpose of sensory integration therapy is to provide the input of the above sensory stimuli, and to control them appropriately, so that children can guide their activities according to their internal driving force and form adaptive responses automatically, thus promoting the combination and unity of these senses.
Fourth, the art therapy of autism
Art therapy is the so-called painting therapy. Its purpose is to show the repressed feelings and conflicts in the subconscious through painting and its creative free expression activities, and to get relief and satisfaction from the painting process, so as to achieve the effect of diagnosis and treatment.
v. Game therapy for autism
Game therapy is a psychotherapy method based on psychokinesis. In the case that children can't express and understand in language completely and clearly, the therapist uses games that children can express their psychological aspects with their physical functions instead of language as a communication method. In the process of playing games, children can understand the separation between people and themselves, learn interpersonal and social skills and cultivate social adaptability. The purpose of game therapy is to exert children's self-healing power through the characteristics of games, so as to express their inner complex and make their personality develop normally.
