Vera Bernard Opitz

Hello my name is Vera Bernard-Opitz. I am a German Psychological Psychotherapist and a Behavior Analyst.

We herewith share free information on Autism-Specific Behavior Therapy (ABT).

Colleagues, therapists, teachers and parents can access helpful material, links and films.

We will regularly add current topics, new ideas and trailers. Readers are invited to send us their latest therapy ideas, case stories and films,

so that we can share them with the "Rest of the World".

Feedback for the courses and website

Ich denke immer wieder an Sie und an unsere Gespräche und übe mich in Selbstregulation. Gemobbt werde ich noch immer, aber ich lerne damit umzugehen und das gar nicht mal so schlecht. Ein zufriedenes Leben am highfunctioning end vom Spektrum ist also trotz aller Schwierigkeiten möglich!
