How to Help Asperger's Clients in Their Romantic Life

For those on the autistic spectrum, relationships can be a minefield of confusion. In this video I'll illustrate this with the example of a client of mine named Simon.

I'll explain the effect Asperger's Syndrome can have on a relationship, particularly relating to the 'context blindness' you get with Asperger's, and I'll share some tips on how to help 'Aspie' clients find the love and intimacy they need in their relationships.
