From the playgrounds of our youth to the professional realms of our adult lives, autistics and ADHDers must navigate a world ill-suited to our unique needs-often without support. Written by a neurodivergent therapist, Neurodivergent Game Plan: Cheat Codes for Empowered Living offers a compassionate exploration of the neurodivergent experience from the inside out.
Drawing on lived experience, rigorous research, and clinical insights, the book delves into the impact of structural ableism on neurodivergent experiences of attachment and trauma. It provides evidence-based approaches for addressing executive dysfunction and improving mental flexibility, while offering practical advice on managing neurodivergent needs and finding support.
Within its pages, you will learn how to:
• Identify often-overlooked autistic and ADHD traits. • Understand common co-occurring challenges. • Recognize symptoms of complex post-traumatic stress disorder. • Develop robust strategies for managing stress. • Construct a tailored plan for sensory, executive, and social self-care. • Refine organizational skills for peak efficiency. • Maximize the benefits of therapy. • Discover and leverage latent strengths. • Engage with the community. • Create a roadmap for career satisfaction. • Thrive in the face of ableism.
Whether you're new to your neurodivergent identity or further along in your journey, Neurodivergent Game Plan is an opportunity to deepen your self-knowledge and explore new ways to flourish.
