Hi,
Suggestion, have an occupational therapist complete a sensory profile....this information will be very helpful and they should help develop interventions that will help your child. Also, have a psychiatrist that has a background in ASP evaluate your child. Just some thoughts.

He needs help with social skills, perhaps through the guidance counselor or school social worker. Do they have friendship groups? Kids with Asp. need to be taught directly how to ...

As a parent of a daughter with Asp. and a special education teacher, my suggestion would be to sign a release to allow the school counselor to SPEAK with your daughter's therapaist. I would NOT release therapy records to a school system. Hope this helps.
