Acerca del evento
Gain insight into the PDA profile and how it may show up in children with autism or ADHD—helping you better understand your child’s unique way of navigating the world.
Shift perspective from seeing “resistance” to recognizing your child’s underlying needs, creating space for more empathy and calm.
Discover supportive tools to build trust, reduce overwhelm, and strengthen your connection with your neurodivergent child.
This presentation goes beyond traditional approaches by focusing on understanding PDA through empathy rather than behavior control. It empowers parents to see their child’s challenges as part of their neurodivergent wiring, offering strategies that reduce stress and strengthen relationships.
This workshop is for parents and caretakers.
