Great conference! Loved hearing more of the science behind Autism.
Dr. Tendler and the Prism was very informative regarding up-to-date technology.
Wide range of speakers and topics made the conference helpful to me.
Enjoyed Dr. Chasson and how he mixed humor and information to make the session memorable.
Being a small conference made it feel more personal.
Qualified and educated speakers provided much needed information.
Refreshing to hear from experts in the field of Autism.
The way the information was presented in Dr. Chasson's presentation was very easy to understand and put into practice.
This session explored the nuance of perfection and the structures within it that create both positive and negative outcomes. Dr. Chasson explored causes, effects, and possible treatment for perfectionism as well as autism related symptoms.
Great Event! The speakers were very knowledgeable and informative.
The location was fun and intimate.
Dr. Chasson's workshop was amazing. It was small so it gave me a chance to interact and ask questions.
I am excited to be a part of a conference that is just starting. It felt very personal like conferences used to be. Keep it up, but don't get too big!
I loved all of the speakers. Lots of information to help me in my work. Loved Tony Jackson's energy. The personal stories of the parents were a nice addition to the conference.
Dr. Chasson was very informative and provoked a lot of thought about perfectionism in people with autism, and in general.
It was great to be a part of an up and coming symposium. Collaboration in the parent and speaker panels was amazing. I felt like I was a part of the learning experience. I learned a lot that I will be taking home with me to my practice.
Dr. Chasson's presentation was helpful in better understanding underlying constructs that can drive autism and how it’s connected with perfectionism.
