SUMMARY:Supporting Parents of Neurodiverse Children
DESCRIPTION:This CPD session will provide an introduction to neurodiversity\, focusing specifically on Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) and ADHD\, and how these may be experienced and expressed in children. It will explore the wider impact of a child’s diagnosis on family relationships and consider how the realities of raising a neurodiverse child can differ from parents’ expectations. \nThe session will also examine the emotional challenges that parents and carers may face\, including burnout and depression. In addition\, it will discuss the experiences of parents who discover their own neurodivergence later in life\, often following their child’s assessment or diagnosis. The training will conclude by considering how therapists can effectively support parents\, carers and family members navigating these experiences. \nWhat You Will Learn\n\nAn overview of neurodiversity and how it may present.\nA deeper understanding of ASC and ADHD.\nHow a child’s diagnosis can impact the wider family unit.\nThe realities of parenting a neurodiverse child and how these can differ from expectations.\nThe effects of carer burnout and depression.\nThe experiences of parents who receive a later-life diagnosis after their child is diagnosed.\nWays therapists can support parents and family members of neurodiverse children.\n\nPresenter\nElizabeth Loveder is a HCPC registered Dramatherapist who has been working with children and adults with neurodiversity for over 10 years.
