awkward. These can definitely be aspects, but they only touch on a small part of the experience.

Being neurodivergent impacts how you think, how you feel, how you learn, how you love, how you grow, and what you value.

Using hands-on strategies, children and adults learn concrete approaches that can be generalized from the therapy session to everyday life.
