Do you have trouble distinguishing between OCD symptoms and autism + ADHD? Have you wondered why OCD is so prevalent amongst neurodivergent humans? Are you a clinician who is unsure how to adapt evidence-based treatments for autistic folks and ADHDers? Have you heard that ERP does not work for neurodivergent clients? Do you want to learn more about neuroaffirming care?

If so, this workshop is for YOU!

In the hour presentation, we will address:

• Neurodivergence 101

• Is OCD neurodivergence?

• Neuroaffirming care

• Differentiating autistic and ADHD traits from OCD

• Why OCD is more prevalent amongst neurodivergent people

• Adapting ERP for autistic and ADHD nervous systems

• And more!

The first hour is a presentation and the last 30 minutes of the workshop is comprised of a Q&A where you can ask us anything.

If you cannot attend live, you can purchase a ticket and receive a copy of the workshop recording. Everyone who purchases a ticket will receive the recording.

The Zoom link will be sent to your email one hour prior to the workshop on Saturday, March 28.
