Review “Based on empirical research and insightful clinical acumen, Dr. Knapp has written a book that provides great tips to parents of children with ASD, all woven together with a lot of heart! Parents will appreciate the case presentations, the focus on family attachment, self-care, communication, schooling, and the easy read of this important and helpful book. I will definitely be sharing it as a resource for families in my clinical practice.”” ―Monica Fyfe, LMFT, BCBA, RPT-S, Founder and Executive Director of Our Village, A Social Learning Community, and Adjunct Professor of the Graduate School of Education and Psychology at Pepperdine University “Dr. Knapp has written a wonderful comprehensive book for helping parents on their journey for supporting their child with autism spectrum disorder. The book is filled with practical strategies and thoughtful considerations ranging from challenging behavior to enhancing social skills and opportunities for your children. It is easy to read and digest when so much information can be overwhelming. While written for parents, clinicians will also find it useful in collaborating with families impacted by ASD. I highly recommend Dr. Knapp's book.” ―Kim Vander Dussen, Psy. D., RPT-S “Compassionate and practical, Dr. Knapp gently guides his reader on a journey filled with empowerment and hope. This is a must-read for parents hoping to better understand their child with autism and looking for practical, useful tools to help their child navigate through life’s many challenges. Real examples and relatable experiences make this a truly heartfelt and important piece of literature.” ―Barbara Endlich, Psy.D, BCBA-D “As a high-achieving entrepreneur who gets a sense of accomplishment from doing, (yet always feels like I have more to do), this book nailed it in the introduction: 'I am worthy to be cared for and self-care is not yet another box to check.' A Year of Self-Care provides just the right amount of structure, flexibility, encouragement, and reflection to make real and lasting changes in how we treat ourselves in body, mind, and spirit.” ―Carol Cox, Founder & CEO, Speaking Your Brand About the Author Albert Knapp, PsyD, BCBA-D, RPT-S, is a clinical psychologist, a board-certified behavior analyst-doctoral, and a registered play therapist-supervisor at Argosy University in California.
