Hi Tracy, It is very common for neurodiverse children to experience anxiety, and phobias are commonly anxiety-based. Given the complex needs you have described, he likely requires support from a variety of services. I would recommend a Clinical Psychology and Educational Psychology assessment, and also check if the school have initiated a Team Around the Family meeting.
@@edpsych4kids where would I find a good clinical psychologist that really good in his field , he had a referral to forward thinking Birmingham but I don’t want to be on a waiting list for years , many thanks
