THEME: Neurodiversity-Affirming Services: What's the Difference?
Wendy McGuire, MSW, RSW, PhD, will facilitate this discussion. As neurodivergent individuals, it's easy to recount the multitude of negative experiences we've had with public systems. But what neurodiversity-affirming experiences have you had - in the educational system, healthcare system, a job interview, the workplace, with government service workers, food service workers, in the transit system, legal system, etc? What makes a public service ND-affirming? As therapists, it can be hard to define what makes our services different. By sharing and comparing, we can build our vocabulary to better explain what we do and to advocate for a more neurodiversity-affirming world.
A virtual, monthly Clinical Supervision Group for neurodiversity-affirming therapists and therapists in training.

In this webinar, we will explore these critical questions and provide a comprehensive framework tailored for neurodiversity-affirming therapists.
