Think you may be Autistic or experience ADHD and looking for guidance on what to do next from a neuro-affirming perspective?
In this episode, I invite Dr. Emma Offord, a clinical psychologist specialising in neurodivergence, to share her insights on the neurodivergent experience - particularly the discovery process and the emotional journey that can unfold as a result.
Emma shares her expertise on how understanding your sensory profile is important, and the challenges faced by neurodivergent individuals in various settings across the lifespan. Together we discuss the importance of having a compassionate and empowering view of neurodivergence, along with practical tips for navigating newly-discovered neurodivergence and life as a neurodivergent individual.
Highlights include:

(05:15) The Process of Discovering Neurodivergence

(11:42) Understanding Sensory Profiles and Their Impact

(18:30) Accommodations for Neurodivergent Individuals in Therapy

(22:10) Navigating Non-Affirming Environments as a Neurodivergent Person
