Therapy or Development? Doing Better for Neurodivergent Who Struggle with Jason & Debbie

About this episode

Join us as we share the recording of a presentation we gave at the Independent Educational Consultant’s Association (IECA) 2021 Fall Conference.

It’s time to rethink interventions for those who are Neurodivergent (ND). ND diagnoses are swelling, shifting, and crystalizing.

The latest research is giving better perspectives on why ND diagnoses are developmental differences and not mental health issues.

Those who serve this population already know that although anxiety and depression are common, the root cause is not the same as “typicals.”

Historically, ND individuals have been directed into the treatment world, when different approaches, specifically developmental approaches, are proving to be more effective.
