Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy

Understanding Neurodivergence

Neurodivergence refers to variations in neurological development and functioning which encompasses a wide range of conditions, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), dyslexia, dyspraxia, and others.. Neurodivergence is not a disorder; rather, it is a natural variation in the human brain that influences how individuals think, learn, and interact with the world.

The Importance of Specialized Support

Every neurodivergent individual has unique strengths and challenges. Therapy tailored to neurodivergence recognizes and embraces these differences, offering support that is empowering, affirming, and person-centered.
