Abstract
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopment disorder that now affects one in 59 children, a 15% increase from the 2012 report. Although there have been numerous studies on the treatment of ASD, interventions focus primarily on the individual diagnosed with ASD. Marriage and family therapists’ (MFT) are in a unique position to handle the systemic dynamics of ASD. As a result, many MFTs find it difficult and outside their scope of practice to work with these families. We will explore aspects of narrative family therapy, conceptualization, and interventions, giving the reader a base understanding of how to implement narrative therapy while working with this population.

使用叙述镜头对患有自闭症谱系障碍的儿童进行家庭治疗
摘要
自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)是一种神经发育障碍,目前影响59名儿童中的1名,比2012年的报告增加了15%。尽管有许多关于ASD治疗的研究,但干预措施主要集中于诊断出患有ASD的个体。婚姻和家庭治疗师(MFT)在处理ASD的系统动力学方面处于独特的位置。结果,许多MFT认为与这些家庭合作困难且超出了他们的业务范围。我们将探讨叙事性家庭疗法,概念化和干预措施的各个方面,使读者对如何与这一群体合作时如何实施叙事疗法有基本的了解。
