Development and Pilot Testing of Transdiagnostic Exposure Therapy/Behavioral Activation for Autistic Adolescents With Internalizing Disorders
Overview
This paper describes the development of a transdiagnostic exposure therapy and behavioral activation intervention tailored for autistic adolescents with internalizing disorders, emphasizing a neurodiversity-affirming approach and caregiver involvement. It reports on a pilot test involving 14 adolescent-caregiver dyads that assessed the treatment's feasibility, acceptability, and initial efficacy outcomes. The resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in adapted cognitive behavioral therapies for this specific population.
