I was diagnosed autistic in recent months.
But I know I shouldn't take ABA therapy.
What should I take instead? Even the psychiatrist seems to think I should take it.

It depends on what you're seeking tbh but you might find that working with a speech therapist for developing your understanding of body language and facial expressions is useful or you might find that working with an occupational therapist will give you the support you're looking for support on how to navigate meeting your needs as an autistic person while also fulfilling goals and having direction in your life.
I was recommended social skills training.
My therapist says that I should go for it if it's neuro-diversity affirming.
