Foundations of Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy

The traditional approach to mental health practice has often been based on a deficit model when working with neurodivergent individuals. However, the neurodiversity movement is challenging this perspective, empowering neurodivergent clients to embrace their unique neurological differences rather than viewing them as deficits that need to be "fixed." This course aims to provide mental health professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to adopt a neurodiversity-affirming approach in their practice. 1.25 Continuing Education Hours earned for completion of this course.

Interpreting Autism Assessment Data in High-Masking and Under-Identified Presentations

This training examines how to interpret autism assessment data in high-masking and under-identified presentations. Designed for licensed psychologists and advanced clinicians with prior assessment experience, it emphasizes clinical reasoning and pattern recognition over checklist-based diagnosis. Participants will review tools (SRS-2, SCQ, ADOS-2, CARS-2) and how results may appear subthreshold, discrepant, or inconsistent in clients who mask or compensate. The session focuses on integrating multiple data sources, including caregiver and teacher reports, standardized measures, observation, interviews, and qualitative information, to support accurate diagnosis. It also addresses discrepancies across informants, interpreting “average” scores, and differentiating autism from overlapping conditions. Case examples support applying findings and delivering clear, neurodiversity-affirming feedback.

The Cost of Camouflage: Exploring Masking and Burnout in Neurodivergent Clients

This course explores the nuanced experiences of neurodivergent clients related to masking, identity development, and burnout. Mental health professionals will gain a deeper understanding of the psychological and emotional toll of masking behaviors, which are often used by neurodivergent individuals to navigate neurotypical expectations. Participants will examine how sustained masking contributes to identity diffusion, misdiagnosis, and neurodivergent burnout—an experience distinct from general burnout and shaped by unique sensory, social, and emotional demands. The course provides practical clinical strategies to support clients in unmasking safely, fostering self-understanding, and promoting authentic self-expression within and beyond the therapeutic relationship.
