Nurturing Neurodivergence: The Late-Identified Adults' Guide to Building Healthy Relationships with Self and Others
(Book - Regular Print)

Life is hard even without unidentified neurodivergence, and you are not alone if you had spent years wondering why everything was so hard. Learning you're neurodivergent may come as a relief, but you may feel just as lost trying to navigate a predominantly neurotypical world. Support and resources for late-identified neurodivergent adults remain scarce compared to those for children and parents. This workbook-guide is specially created for late-identified autistic adults and/or adults with ADHD. Written in a relaxed, easy-to-read tone, this neuroaffirming book combines research findings and clinical experience to help you better understand autism and ADHD, and most importantly, what your late-identification means to you.

In it, you'll find thought-provoking questions or activities for guided reflections, engaging infographics (in FULL COLOUR!) unpacking key concepts in accessible ways, as well as practical strategies to support you with navigating the day-to-day of a late-identified adult. Drawing on a range of evidence-based psychotherapy models, including Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), it is a fantastic resource for mental health practitioners. With a fierce commitment to helping late-identified adults avoid neurodivergent burnout and develop a sustainable way of living, Nurturing Neurodivergence gifts readers with the essential tools for building healthy self-view and relationships in their lives.
