In our work as/with neurodivergent individuals\, we seek to build self-awareness\, self-acceptance\, and skills for self-advocacy. \nN.B. We do not support Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA) as a valid treatment for Autism. ABA practitioners are welcome to participate in this group provided that they refrain from explaining or defending ABA as a treatment modality. \nCurrent Group Dates: Second Friday of every month. \nRead more on Facebook here. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Resources for Therapists and Allied Health Professionals\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n					\n						Free Resources\n						Here you will find: \n\nworkshops\nquizzes\nsensory activities\ngroups\nand more…\n\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n					\n						Neurodiversity-Affirming/ Neurodivergent Clinical Group Supervision\n						A virtual\, monthly clinical supervision group for neurodiversity-affirming therapists and therapists in training. \n\nNeurodiversity-Affirming Therapy – What is It?\nThe Relationship Between Sex and Gender Diversity and Neurodiversity\nModifying Traditional Therapeutic Modalities for Neurodivergent Clients\nWorking with Neurodivergent/Neurotypical (ND/NT) Couples\nEmotional\, Sensory\, and Cognitive Dysregulation\nAnd More\n\nClick to read more and sign up \n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n					\n						Join the Team\n						As a member of our growing virtual team\, you will have the exclusive opportunity to be trained in our unique\, trademarked neurodiversity-affirming treatment model\, receive ongoing supervision\, and have opportunities for continuous learning\, as teacher and learner\, alongside team members in health and mental health disciplines across Canada. See what we are currently recruiting for here
