Neurodivergence refers to individuals whose brains function differently, including those with Autism, ADHD, anxiety, OCD, Sensory Processing Disorders, and many other differences. It is common but often misunderstood, with many associated features and misdiagnoses. Mental health clinicians should understand neurodivergence in therapy to effectively work with clients. This webinar offers an introduction and focuses on diagnosis and working with neurodivergent clients in therapy.
