On the face of it, many characteristics of being Autistic and many of those for ADHD seem to fly in opposite directions. However, probably about a third of Autistics also are ADHD, so how does that even work? Can you really be distracted and focused, novelty-oriented and sameness-oriented, empathetic and unempathetic, creative and pedantic? A lot of the answers lie in breaking down simple assumptions and stereotypes like those, but also in digging deeper into how and why characteristics such as these arise to start with. By exploring questions like these, we will build a picture of how life works for ‘shiny sparkles’ (Autistic ADHDers), and how the combination can often result in some exceptional creativity along the way. This course is ideal for Autistics suspecting they have ADHD. but would also be useful for teachers, SNAs, GPs, family members, therapists etc. Course Length 2hrs 30mins Investment includes certificate of completion, lifetime access and presentation slides. -
Sensory sensitivity is the latest addition to the diagnostic criteria used by clinicians assessing Autistics, less than a decade ago. However, Autistic people have been well aware just how prominent a characteristic this is for a lot longer, and understanding of the diversity and importance of those sensitivities is central to appreciating just how ‘being Autistic’ works on a daily basis. This session is ideal for parents, teachers, SNAs & therapists. Course length 2hrs 30mins Investment includes certificate of completion, lifetime access and presentation slides. -
Much that gets written about Autistics focuses on description, of traits, of ‘symptoms,’ of ‘behaviours,’ of likes and dislikes, of abilities and impairments. This is akin to describing the exterior of a house while remaining oblivious to how that building functions as a home to live in. Join us to explore the How and Why behind the ways Autistic people think, feel, imagine, hope, and how that plays out in real life scenarios. This course is ideal for parents, teachers, SNAs & therapists, but would also be useful for Autistic adults Course length 2hrs 30mins Investment includes certificate of completion, lifetime access and presentation slides. -
