[REPLAY] Neurodivergence, Negative Self-Talk, & Building Resilience
Parent Workshop (39 minutes)
Who is this workshop for?
One of the most heart-breaking things a parent can hear is a child being mean to themselves. Some children get so overwhelmed at times that they call themselves names, or even worse, hit themselves when they are upset.
As adults, we can feel helpless in these moments and are quick to say something to negate our child’s statement like “Of course you’re not stupid” or “Don’t say that; it’s not true.” But, responding with comments opposite of a child’s thoughts can feel dismissive and leave them feeling emotionally alone.
So what are we to do?
In this workshop you will learn:
Why your child is engaging in negative self-talk
What's happening emotionally for your child in this moments
Why mistakes are harder for neurodivergent kids and teens
How to help your child understand their brain and needs for support
When and how to help your child practice frustration tolerance

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,
