Webinars 

Are you a neurodivergent adult or maybe think you might be? Want to better understand your nervous system, burnout and what helps with recovery?

​

Many of us who are neurodivergent experience burnout; acute experiences that last weeks and months through to chronic and enduring experiences. We may even go through cycles of burnout throughout our lives.

​

Courtney and Viv are both neurodivergent professionals with lived experience of burnout. They will sensitively and compassionately help you understand why neurodivergent people experience burnout. They will explain the differences in the neurodivergent nervous system and what helps us on a recovery journey.

​

The ticket gives you access to both sessions on Tuesdays Sept 15th and 22nd, 7-9pm (BST) and both sessions are recorded.

Join Viv Dawes Autistic Advocate as they unpack what a recovery journey from burnout can be like for neurodivergent children and young people and how to support them as parents.

Viv has been 'that' parent and been on the recovery journey with her family since 2018. It hasn't been easy and at times it has been really scary. From her lived experience and work with literally hundreds of other parents, Viv will look at:
 

-When co-occurrent conditions such as OCD run alongside burnout, but get missed

-Sleep patterns, bad advice and tearing our hair out over sleep

-When eating goes up the wall

-Why recovery is not linear and can be so very messy

-When will they ever get back into education?

-Are they ever going to have a life?

-Why is this all taking so long?

-Why emergence from what felt like the dark night of the soul is a vulnerable experience.


Viv's work has helped so many parents and neurodivergent individuals, because she brings not only 30 years of professional experience, but also her own lived experience.

You will come away from this webinar feeling validated, encouraged and with a new way of seeing what can be such a frightening journey for parents.

Webinar will be recorded.
