RESUMO
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is widely regarded as the most severe childhood behavioral disorder. However, society's lack of awareness regarding neurodevelopmental disorders, like autism, has led to a limited understanding of their profound impact on children and their families. Challenges include unique sensory experiences, communication and social interactions, strain on familial relationships, emotional toll on parents, and educational hurdles, which can significantly impact the well-being of individuals and their families. This case study explores the integration of Structural and Experiential Family Therapy in a neurodivergent family coping with ASD and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Structural interventions focus on clarifying roles and redistributing caregiving responsibilities, addressing issues of communication, and power dynamics. Experiential interventions target emotion-focused techniques, empathy building, and cultural sensitivity training. This integration may promote lasting change in family dynamics and a call to empower parents within neurodivergent families through tailored interventions, contributing to a sustainable therapeutic approach.
