It’s been 11 years since I was last a student. I was missing it, wanting to be connected back to the emerging research in the area of Neurodevelopemental disabilities. Then I found the UC-LEND program at my Alma Mater

A full academic year of course work, seminars, capstone project and LEND Clinic observation. I think the best part was connecting with Practitioners in other fields determined to provide affirming care for Neurodivergent Patients.

There is still so much more to learn and do within Neurodiversity but right now I’m savoring this accomplishment.

Looking forward to being a part of this awesome Panel Discussion about Supervision and Neurodiversity at the 2024 Supervision Summit!

Post grad school supervision is where therapists learn the most about how to support our clients. As an AuDHD supervisor it is also the place I aim create a neurodivergent affirming environment for my team. Making sure I understand how each supervisee communicates, their learning style, and how they are best supported before we even get to case discussions.

Supervision is the place we can model ND affirming practices for the next generation of therapists because Neurodiversity comprehension, acceptance and celebration impacts all of us.

Join next Saturday May 19th virtually for a great supervision summit. Registration information on my LinkTree
