What Main Goal of Interventions Should Be with Jason

About this episode

The main goal of common interventions for neurodivergent clients often misses the mark. Counseling, medications, and behavioral interventions can support neurodivergent clients, but they rarely address the primary goal and often do harm when used inappropriately.

In this episode, Jason shares his perspectives on what the goal should be, some pros and cons of classical interventions, and how to better address the main goal more effectively.

What You'll Learn from this Episode:

  • What the main goal of interventions should be for neurodivergent clients.
  • When classical interventions can be helpful and harmful.
  • The problem with trying to get neurodivergent children, teens, and young adults to do the things they’re “supposed to do.”
  • What to consider when looking at developmental timelines.
  • What approach with interventions is more effective and sustainable.
