For those considered neurodivergent, they may face obstacles related to sensory, emotional, environmental or physical, as well as psychological such as 'Learned Helplessness' or 'Pathological Demand Avoidance'.
Whilst it is important to identify and acknowledge these obstacles, we can focus our attention on finding 'work arounds', or pathways where these obstacles become less impeding or restrictive.
Through creative thinking, patience and understanding, we work with the individual and/or their parent/guardian to find any activity that can produce a positive outcome on their wellbeing. Any activity where the individual can express their authentic self is a win.
These activities can provide the ideal opportunity to support emotional awareness (see The Emotional section), to bond and provide positive feedback, and to develop their abilities.
We are happy to partake in any activity that is suggested by the individual or parent/guardian. Below are a couple of options that can be tapered to suit the individuals goals, needs, and limitations.
