Who is this workshop for?
If you’re raising a neurodivergent child, you may have noticed they have intense emotions and you’re not sure how to handle it. As we’ve talked about in previous workshops, autistic and twice-exceptional children as well as those with learning differences and ADHD can have asynchronous skills that can lead to feeling confused or defeated.
The anxiety in neurodivergent kids often goes beyond just regular worries of childhood and can manifest as aggressive behavior, arguing, avoidance, or sensory meltdowns.
In this workshop you will learn:
How to spot anxiety related to bedtime, school, tests, & social interactions
What behaviors look like defiance but are actually anxiety
How to figure out patters of anxiety and strategies to get ahead of it
How to explain anxiety to your child so they feel more in control
Strategies to support your child’s bravery and how to make decisions around situations that cause them anxiety

What qualifies me to teach this workshop?
As a child psychologist, former school psychologist, and parent, I’ve spent the last two decades working with neurodivergent children and teens alongside their families and teachers.
Our kids are complex. What works for one child may or may not work for another. Our families are complex. There is so much information out there, but you are ultimately the decision-makers of the next best step in your child’s journey. I want to help you to feel more capable and experience more joy on this parenting journey.
If you’re ready to learn how to reduce the stress in your home, help others understand your kid, and find more joy, you are in the right place.
Let’s do this together,
~Dr. Emily
