Overview
This feasibility study explores families’ experiences of the Walk-In Together (WIT) single session family therapy service at the Bouverie Centre. Families are referred to this clinic as they progress through or complete an autism assessment for their young child at the Victorian Early Assessment Clinic (VEAC), and they participate at their own discretion. In this project, families are supported to navigate their child’s diagnostic journey and are invited to share this experience with researchers after their session. The study is ongoing and findings will be published in due course.
