Digby's psychotherapy specializations include group analytic psychotherapy, existential psychotherapy, and cognitive behavioural therapy. He is a long-standing member of the British Association of Cognitive and Behaviour Therapy, on the editorial board of the British Journal of Psychotherapy, a member of the Society for Existential Analysis, and co-chair of the International Collaborative of Existential Counsellors and Psychotherapists.
Digby has provided a regular clinic for adolescents and adults with Asperger syndrome for longer than anyone in the UK, and possibly in the world. He first began this in 1980. Over the years, he has met--and learned from--well over a thousand people with Asperger syndrome, and related disorders, and their families and carers. He is the director of the Dilemma Developmental Disorders assessment service.
Digby has published over 160 articles in scientific journals, many of them about Asperger syndrome or autism, and has been the author or editor of 11 books. He has two books coming out in April 2009: Understanding repeated self-injury (with Nick Huband) to be published by Palgrave, and Can the world afford autistic spectrum disorder? to be published by Jessica Kingsley. |
