Description

Scatolia and coprophagia, also known as fecal smearing and fecal ingesting are among the least researched areas within the circle of complicated behaviors. Our expert guest shares reasons and solutions for this often unspoken and isolating behavior. About the Guest: Kate Reynolds worked for the UK’s NHS for 18 years, seven of which were in HIV/AIDS during the 1990s in and around London. She worked as a senior nurse, trained counsellor and trainer. Both of Kate’s children were on the autism spectrum, one with Asperger syndrome and epilepsy; the other having intellectual disabilities. She has written eleven published books, nine for Jessica Kingsley Publishers including What to Do about Smearing. She is working on a new series of books about sexual health for adults with autism and learning disabilities for Hachette publishers. Kate runs workshops for professionals and parent carers, speaks at national and international conferences, has written numerous articles and is a consultant for schools, other professionals and families. Currently she is engaged in doctoral studies based on her Masters degree. Link to Mentioned Content: The poo recipe can be found on page 127 of Kate's book.

The LOMAH Podcast is an award winning show that runs topical series deep diving into an issue for 10-12 episodes with interviews from expert guests, including self advocates. Your host, Kim, has a teenage daughter with level 3 non speaking autism who will require 24/7 support the rest of her life. Like many parents, Kim has a lot of important questions. She does not claim to know the answers for her child nor yours but does promise to search for them and share what she is discovering along the way. You will notice a striking difference in the earlier shows compared to the most recent as she has grown and evolved as a result of listening to expert guests and self advocates.
