Neurodivergent kids often come with neurodivergent parents—and therapy needs to support both. This course offers practical tools for helping children with ADHD, autism, and regulation struggles, while also guiding parents who may face their own executive dysfunction or emotional challenges. Learn how to build trust, translate behavior into insight, and empower families with strategies that actually work in real life. It’s about empowering families to work with their brains—not against them.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

Identify common neurodivergent traits in children and caregivers (e.g., ADHD, autism, sensory sensitivities, executive functioning) that influence therapeutic engagement and behavior patterns.
Apply strengths-based, neurodivergent-affirming strategies to support emotional regulation, communication, and executive functioning in both child and parent.
Demonstrate effective techniques for engaging neurodivergent caregivers as collaborative partners in the therapeutic process, even when they face their own regulation or trauma-related challenges.
