Description

In this honest and practical guide, autistic therapist Raelene Dundon explores and demystifies how neurodiversity affirming principles can be easily applied to therapeutic practice.

Covering essential considerations for working with neurodivergent clients such as presuming competence, promoting autonomy and respecting communication styles, and providing advice on the best affirming approaches in therapy including how to accommodate sensory needs and encourage self-advocacy, Raelene provides easy-to-implement ways to make your practice inclusive and empowering for neurodivergent children and young people.

The deficit model is out. It's time to become neurodiversity affirming.

Critic Reviews

As an autistic ADHDer this book is written from both a personal and research-based perspective. Raelene has listened to 'the community', and her own experiences. Neurodiversity affirming practice is named, explained and choreographed in every chapter. This is a game changer and potentially equips Clinicians with the understanding they need for this and future generations. -- Dr. Wenn B. Lawson (PhD)
