CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) is very successful among NT's. Can that also work for us? If so, do we follow the same protocol they do or are there special considerations that take into account our different wiring?
Considering that I "failed" CBT for my OCD twice and that my CBT therapist suspected (and then diagnosed) my Asperger's because of this, I'd say that Aspies need CBT to be tweaked for them. The bad thing about CBT is that you have to focus on one specific fear. That's hard to do when us Aspies are scared about anything that is even slightly unfamiliar...
