Opis
Inclusion Criteria:
- Be 18-40 years old
- Have a confirmed diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD).
- Have access to a device (e.g., computer with a webcam or smartphone) in order to complete online surveys and participate in the telehealth videoconferencing sessions
- *Have a VIQ and NVIQ of 85 or above
- *Have at least a 6th grade reading composite
- *Have elevated symptoms of depression, anxiety or anger. This will be determined based on scoring above the borderline or mild threshold on at least one of 3 screening measures (MINI; ASR; DASS-21).
Exclusion Criteria:
- Are younger than 18 years old, or older than 40 years old (Children are excluded because the focus is on adapting GBAT for adults; Individuals above 40 are excluded to restrict the adult focus to young adults that are more likely to be in similar life stages).
- Do not have an ASD diagnosis (because the study as the purpose of the current research is to examine GBAT's feasibility with autistic adults).
- Both VIQ and NVIQ below 85 OR less than 6th grade reading level
- Do not have elevated scores of depression, anxiety, or anger on the symptom screening measures.
- Are unable to understand English fluently (because the instruments being investigated are currently only validated in English and the intervention will be delivered in English).
- Are currently enrolled in another behavioral therapy or psychotherapy targeting depression,
- the PI's clinical judgment that it would not be in the adult's best interest to be enrolled (e.g., due to factors that may affect their engagement or comfort in the group).
