Friday, March 7, 2025
9am-11:30am PT / 11am-1:30pm CT / 12pm-2:30pm ET
Event held online via Zoom, link to access provided upon registration.
This class applies principles from the neurodiversity movement to the task of differential diagnosis in psychotherapy. Self-advocates in need of mental health services promote disability rights and social justice. This clinically complex client group experiences a broad array of psychiatric diagnoses; however, their focus has shifted from the cure of disease to seeking acceptance and affirmation from treating professionals.
At the same time their goals include amelioration of problems that interfere with their quality of life. Professionals who take a collaborative approach and demonstrate humility in their work with neurodivergent clients are likely to be clinically effective and enjoy professional satisfaction.
Clients experiencing neurodivergent diagnoses are seeking increased satisfaction through their support systems; They express interest in maximizing quality of life despite multiple disabilities. They also seek adequate supports, both institutionally and through their intimate lives. Therapists can serve as critical resources and offer guidance to clients who are managing co-occurring conditions.
