Neurodivergent Young Adults Support Group
Waitlist open
Neurodivergent Young Adults Support Group
Ages 18-28. The long-running YA group combines social time with learning about our neurotypes and what works for us. We laugh together at every session. It can be a pretty goofy time.
Discussion
How do you handle change?
Young adults experience a lot of change, like moving, finishing school, breakups, and starting new relationships. Some of us really don’t like change. How do we cope?
Discussion
Nervous system regulation
With ADHD and autism, we are more likely to experience anxiety, overwhelm, and emotional dysregulation. Understanding how that happens can really help.
Discussion
Executive function
Executive functions are tools we use to start, keep going, and complete tasks. Unfortunately, that can be a wild ride for neurodivergent people.
Activity
Sensing our emotions
Many autistic and ADHD people find it hard to name and discuss emotions. Tuning into body sensations can give us information about how we’re feeling and what to do.
Activity
Mapping sensory likes and dislikes
Experiencing unpleasant sounds, smells, and environments can degrade our well-being and cause stress to build. So, let’s name what’s good and what’s bad.
Activity
Quiz time
An executive function assessment will show that that each of us have some real strengths and some deep challenges. How do we use the highs to support the lows?
Wednesday, 5:15–6:15 pm PT, 8:15 - 9:15 pm ET
Neurodivergent Adults Support Group
Waitlist open
Neurodivergent Adults Support Group
This long-running group focusses on social connection among autistic and ADHD adults. We discuss neurodivergence and how to live in line with your values, interests and neurotype. Examples below.
discussion
Living in line with our values
Working or living in systems that don’t reflect our personal values can be a huge drain on our energy and overall wellbeing. How does your life reflect your values?
discussion
Nervous system regulation
Understanding and caring for our nervous systems gives us the flexibility to manage stress and avoid burnout.
discussion
Avoiding burnout, or self care when we’re there
Our neurodivergent nervous systems can be so sensitive to threats to our safety that it’s hard to relax and rest. How do you tell when you’re in a threat response, and what do you do?
activity
Values sort
Neurodivergent people often have a strong need to live in line with our values. We’ll do a values sort and discuss what motivates us and what we have in common.
activity
Executive function assessment
Knowing your executive function strengths and challenges goes a long way in self-trust and understanding.
activity
Burnout inventory
Some people come to coaching because they need support with burnout. What’s burnout, how do we recognize it, and what are you specific signs?
Groups can provide unique support through shared understanding and social connection. Before starting a group, I meet with each potential group member to check for fit and answer questions.
