And no, you don't need a diagnosis. We are an inclusive clinic - welcoming all. 

 

Because we KNOW that when our children percieve or experience the world differently... many of the "normal" parenting approaches don't work... 

 

When our children think, feel or experience things differently, then they will probably appreciate a different parenting approach too :) 

 

Learn what works - we are enrolling NOW for our 5 hour Neurodiversity Essentials Programme (run online). 

 

This is a 5 hour programme run over 2 afternoons - 2.30pm to 5pm. 

 

Next Programme is the November 4th (Mon.) and 5th (Tues.) - 2.30pm-5pm. 

 

Why complete the Neurodiversity Essentials Programme?

  1. Your child will feel more understood and support afterwards, and you as a parent will feel more confident and informed. 
  2. Access THREE experienced, neurodivergent psychologists who will provide practical and emotional support and strategies over 5 hours. Combined they have lived experience with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia, OCD, anxiety and depression. The team are renowned across Ireland for providing outstanding psychology support - hired by HSE, Tusla, Brothers of Charity, Respond Housing, and many many more national organisations.

What do parents say about the Neurodiversity Essentials Programme?

 â€śIt was great to hear the experiences of other parents. It was a pleasure to hear [tutors’s name] and to get an insight into their autism” (Rachel, 2023)

 

The main concern of several parents was how best to help and support their child having received a diagnosis, with several parents expressing worry for the future. After attending the programme, parents noted that they felt better equipped to help their children, provide support, implement tips and strategies, and advocate on their behalf, all of which contributed to a greater understanding of their child’s autistic presentation. They explained that they learned:

 

“How best to communicate with them and to help them as they need” (Peter, 2023)

 

“Other peoples’ experience and tips” (John, 2022)

  

“…learned how to try change things…definitely going to do a visual board for her” (Anne, 2023)

 

 â€śStrategies on what to do/ trial and helpful practical tips” (Simon, 2023)

 

 â€śIt was well laid out and covered a good range of topics to a useful depth. We couldn’t be more happy” (Alyssa, 2024)

 

 â€śGot so many useful ideas that I can bring into our home” (Beatrice, 2023)

“Hugely informative, encouraging, positive and reassuring. Gave practical information” (Alyssa, 2024)

 

Learn about autism, ADHD, dyslexic or dyspraxic body-brain balance to cultivate calm and confidence.

Support the body first
As February comes to an end, many families notice emotions sitting closer to the surface. This is okay Xx   When this happens, it’s tempting to talk more, explain more, or reason harder. But emotional regulation begins in the body. If the sensory system is overwhelmed, the thinking brain cannot come online. This is why logic so often fails in moments of distress. Support the body first.The feel...
You don’t have to be perfect to help
Many of us are emotionally stretched - juggling lots of people's needs! And when children struggle, we often feel pressure to stay endlessly calm. But co-regulation isn’t about perfection.   It’s about presence.   Children don’t need us to erase our feelings.They need to feel we can stay connected while feelings move through the space. A regulated adult doesn’t mean a silent one. It means a ste...
Rest is Action
This week - it's okay to notice exhaustion. For neurodivergent children, exhaustion can happen more easily than for other kids (and for neurodivergent adults too). You are taking in more sensory information, so it makes sense that this would be tiring.  It can look like slowing down.Withdrawing.Resisting.Shutting off. And for parents, it often brings fear: “What if this doesn’t lift?”“What if w...
