What happens when comedy converges with therapy?
The result is an extraordinary connection and engagement with autistic clients, as explained by our guest, Patrick Sisk, a registered behavioral technician and stand-up comedian.
Patrick brings a whole new dimension to therapy, using humor as a tool to navigate through the complexities of autism. He shares his unique experiences of working with clients of varying ages in their homes and the support provided by a supervisor to ensure effective therapy.
Patrick's story isn’t just about therapy, but also about the challenges he's faced, and how he's used comedy as a de-escalation tool.
We take a closer look at one particular case, an adopted 8-year-old girl with autism, and how Patrick has encouraged her to be mindful of her words and actions.
This episode promises to keep you engaged and inspired as therapy and comedy coalesce to create extraordinary outcomes.
Don't miss out on this heartening conversation that beautifully illustrates the power of laughter and understanding in making a difference in someone's life.
