Building your Neurodivergent identity
What is it ?
Embark on a transformative journey with our ‘Building Your Neurodivergent Identity’ group programs, thoughtfully crafted to empower Neurodivergent individuals of all ages.
With four separate versions, tailored for Autistic/ADHDer kids, teens, adults, and parents of Autistic/ADHDers, this six-session program is designed to provide psychoeducation on the Autistic/ADHD neurotypes and the characteristics associated with these neurotypes, while also fostering connections between those with similar neurotypes.
What does it cover ?
Topics covered in this group program include:
- Understanding Autism/ADHD
- Emotional Regulation
- Energy Accounting
- Communication
- Relationships
- Sensory Differences
Plus, each participant receives a 100-page full-colour handbook, a comprehensive guide to supplement their learnings during the program. This will be posted to all participants of the online programs, to ensure no one misses out.
Where is it ?
I am offering these programs in person at our clinic in Ballina, NSW and online – to ensure there are options for everyone.
