What Will be Covered in this Workshop?

Psychoeducation

My workshops focus on delivering easily digestible psychoeducation, shedding light on diagnoses like Autism Spectrum or ADHD. We delve into the tangible realities of these diagnoses, exploring how these brainstyles manifest in your day-to-day experiences.

Addressing the challenges

Following psychoeducation, we will navigate through common parental experiences and challenges frequently encountered in my practice. This workshop provides a supportive environment for sharing frustrations and navigating the emotional landscape of your parenting journey. As parents, it's crucial to acknowledge our imperfections and recognize that we are, ultimately, imperfect beings doing our best. Validating our experiences is key to feeling empowered to explore new approaches.

Shifting the approach

Once we've explored common struggles and identified parenting triggers, we will delve into the transformative power of adopting a neurodiversity-affirming approach to parenting. Raising a neurodivergent child means you live with a fascinating, unique, creative and sensitive young person. Embracing this perspective opens up a world of opportunity—a chance for growth and understanding, awaiting us as we learn to shift our parenting framework. We will discuss practical strategies for responding effectively to your neurodivergent child's brainstyle.

Guiding you to the resources

Acknowledging the overwhelming wealth of resources available online, a dedicated segment of our workshop will guide you in developing a more manageable plan for accessing relevant research, resources, and literature tailored to your child's specific diagnosis or unique needs.
